Just got my new Tc and need some ideas.
I was looking at cars on the net in hope to help me find the car of my dreams, then thats when I found her. She is a Scion Tc special edition. I have to say that it was love at first sight. I went in today to just look at her and quess what? She is now sitting in front of my Apt. Also while I was at the dealership a guy asked what kind of thing I am going to do to her, I told him some of my ideas. He told me about this site and I should seek the help of others who love there car as much as I do.
So I am asking for some help , if you could just throw some ideas out I would be greatful.
Also any ideas on wheels I have been looking but I just have not found the right ones.
Thank you all for the help.

The hid's are an awesome mod from mobilehid.com, we also stock them here at Avondale Scion. We also carry the fog lights that mount in the 2 holes in the bumper instead of the grille.
Anyone here on scionlife will steer you in the right direction, dont hesitate to ask..

There is so much you can do. Just have fun with it.... Personalize it and make it your own. From lighting to whatever makes you feel good about your ride.
There is always someone on this site that can help you with whatever modifications you would like to do. Normally, at a reasonable price.

I would drop it first. Get yourself a set of nice springs or even coilovers. Depending how low you want to go. or you can always make a list of things you'd like to do and see the pricing and base things on how much your willing to spend at the time.
Good luck and welcome to the boards. Hope see and meet you at some of the meets.

have me install them.
get my light kit.
tint the windows.
give everyone the finger, and they wont be able to see what your doing, cuz it will be dark.

Thanks you quys you have all been a great help and I am hoping to have some pics up by the end of the day..I live in Phoenix Arizona, I got my car from Scotts Scion (the guys there are great)
I'd say that since you live in the desert, go for the tint first. Find out what your local laws are on how dark you're allowed to go because you don't want your money going into tint tickets when they could be going into making your car nicer.
Ask around to find the best value in your area - I paid $160 for my hatch, back windows, and side windows. That's about normal . . . I wouldn't trust the work from a place that charges $50, and I would feel ripped off if I got a $300 tint job. Try looking through people's posts in the "regional" section of these forums . . . under "desert and salt." That's how I found reviews of a local tint shop that I ended up going with and I am pleased with the job they did.
