I like rswscion08's idea of continuing the orange theme onto the mirrors & door handles.

Looking forward to more!
I dont know the offset...the wheels are off a corp Scion display car and I just had them powder coated. Rubbing when I hit bumps 225 front 245 rear. Nexus tires. I dont think im going to do what you guys are suggesting but good thinkin. The idea is keeping it clean and the colors balanced. I already have picture in my head so... Please no suggestions so I dont end up "stealing your idea" has happened before. But be ready to like it a little more

Dont forget to look outside the box and remember you drive a toaster.

ya know, white on orange is really tasteful. There is a white RobiSpec evo with orange enkeis and a orange decal and it looks awesome! putting abstract color wheels is like the new thing, and I am pretty sure I am getting bright orange, green, or red rims on my sw.

For example:





It is just a coincidence that ppl do these crazy color wheels on white cars, I have seen a silver car with takata green rims and it looked hot as well.

Hyper black looks really great against BSP, and not so many people do it since not so many wheels are available.

As weird as it sounds, I don't think it would look good with the orange handles... I keep going over how it looks and came up with a little list.
AIT lip kit in SW, painted headlights, c/f hood and hatch with some orange old schoolish pinstriping... Hmmmm...

As much as I hate mating import/tuner cars with old school, I think it would work. :D

Oh, and no wing. Nooooo wing. No. I'm glad you declined the free one. :D
I would've taken it and sold it on eBay.

I just want to keep it as clean as possible... with some orange contrast... Totally me on Wilshire... definitely no painted handles maybe mirrors... maybe, but I doubt it. Im going for the cleanest look possible. pretty much a stock car with some orange rims at a first glance. Ill keep you guys updated

I don't know where to get it, but this seems to be the most popular rack for the xB2:

I didnt want to leave the lip polished. Now I kinda do. I might get brembos later on or paint the calipers black for now. The wheels stand out as is, no need for the calipers to be orange.

how about painting it white coz then it'll stand out. a friend of mine have a white 1st gen w/gold rims and painted the calipers white, looks great and it stands out but if you would paint it black then you'll see just a big blank space there.imo i think white or red would look much better than black
