So my box has been sitting in my driveway since April 11th. I'm still waiting for the title to arrive from the finance company (hopefully by wednesday). In the meantime, however, I've managed to do quite a few things. Besides what you see in the pictures, I have fixed the rear speakers (they were blown), added a cabin air filter, and installed 4300K HIDs.

I have the lowering equipment on order, hopefully here within a week or so.

Yea, I bought the car used with 26k miles. It actually came with the wing already on there (didnt like it at first, but it's grown on me). I'm actually not planning on adding fender flares, I prefer a clean look and flares kind of break it up (too much for my liking). Besides, these wheels dont have enough poke to really need a set of flares.

The wheels are Sportmax 002s w/ 195/50R15 Falken Ziex.

Thanks for the comments. :)

Pull that rear Scion badge... looks good otherwise.

Loose the ricer wing, Shave the Scion emblems, paint the grill black,
repaint the front lower lip, replace the lower grill, add some S-Tech springs and it would look 100% better for sure.

Thanks for positive comments.

Remember, the title of the thread is 'PROGRESS of my box'. I'm still working on it. Those are just some of the stuff Ive managed to do in the >2 weeks Ive owned it.

The wing is staying, it's grown on me. The front grille fell of on the previous owner, I have to put it on (I have two inside the car). The front grille is going to be shaved and painted black in due time. The front lip might be repainted, but I'm also considering a Kenstyle kit or perhaps some other. The rear emblem will be shaved soon, havent gotten around to it. And finally, I'm going with D2 coilovers which should arrive in a week's time or so.

I hope that's covered everything so far. =P
