The thing you're thinking of is made by topline, a japanese body kit company.

What is the contact info for Nish? I'd rock the Topline front face finisher, if I could get it custom made...

Oratoro was going to manufacture a few to offset the cost of his imported one. You might want to get in touch with him.

I didn't want to mention anything until things are final but the mold has been made and samples have been made. Currently I am looking into other options to keep cost down and to pass the savings to anyone interested. Packaging for shipping is also being looked into to keep cost down.

I will try to post pictures later today once I get home from work.

If all goes well, hopefully they'll be ready within the month.

As promised, here are a few pictures of the "New" Front Face Finisher designed for the US xB.

A silicone mold for better detail.

First Sample from Mold

More samples.

Item is attached via 3M double sided tape.

I had plans to hand lay each piece myself but with my current project ("Fear Factor Live") I am unable to so, the item has been sent to a fiberglass shop for samples to be made. If I'm happy with their work, production will start very soon.

Will keep everyone posted when available.

Cost is still TBD[/img]

How hard would it be to convert that FFF for use with the scion emblem? Presumably you would just have to cut a little bit of fiberglass.

The awesomeness of your xB cannot be understated.

Noobs take note of the dual reflector headlights (OEM from toyota japan), turn signal mirrors, and toyota japan front lip.

Won't know the price until the final samples are complete. Currently I'm having troubles finding boxes to have these shipped in. I'm afraid I may need custom size boxes made which will add to the cost.
