k, so Tim, remember we were looking for that BetaCuts place? anyways i got ahold of the guy, he already made me a small decal, and he will make us "403scions" logos of any color for 6$/each. (6"x3") what do you boys/girls say? please pass this down on FB and let me know who's down
He hasn't joined yet but I"m hoping. He's actually a former 604 Scions member!

I think you and Christian must be following the same girl, he said he ran into a girl driving a maroon Gen1 as well.

I'll post the sticker thing on FB and see what happens. Does he have a minimum amount that he'll print?

ill ask the guy who did my install and see if he could help you out!
will get back to you on here in the evening

p.s Calgary tuner shops are rip offs. it used to be that people stopped going to dealers mainly because of their high prices and extremely unqualified technicians, and now days private shops started charging unorthodox prices too...
example: just out of curiosity talked to guys at one shop in NE about airride install and they quote me at 3500$ + price of the system
when i contacted the guy who sells systems he told me install costs AT MOST 700$
so go figure

What did he charge you? Did he do an alignment as well?

Thanks for the help by the way.. I may just wait until I get my rims in, which should be ~14-21 days *sigh* but if his rate is too good to pass up then - I'll get er dun!

BTW - I saw 3 White Gen 2 XBs yesterday I thought I was going to be original haha, Girls drivin em too...

I shoulda bought my XB a couple years ago when there was very few here, but i procrastinated for the best one.

You wouldn't believe this car has 99,000 miles, drives pretty much like new, I think it may need rotors, but other than that, Christ what a great car, great econobox.. time for another S2K to compliment it though :p

well, he's got the noise and rooftop gadgets right but if he wanted to be true to the original, he'd paint the whole ride white with red trim.


I'd actually love to see that.
