New member and Scion owner!
Hey everyone,
Just recently got a 2006 tC and I am excited I stumbled upon this group. I would love to talk to other tC owners about modifications. I have almost no experience working on cars but definitely want to learn to make my tc my own. Just wanted to introduce myself and hopefully meet others in the area and get help with ideas on mods and such.
*EDIT* - I guess I should say I am most specifically looking for styling and handling mods such as lowering, new headlights (maybe HID), strut bars, tint, etc.
Please say hi if you are near me!

Hey all! Glad to see some local people around here.
I am definitely about meeting other tC owners and going to some meets! I do not know any other tC owners as of this moment and I'd love to see what you guys do to mod your rides.
I did order the OBX speed star mesh shift **** today. I guess that will be my first "mod" albeit very easy to do. I am thinking of ordering the TRD springs/struts kit to lower it but definitely don't know how to install it! So I may take you up on that dave when the time comes!

TRD springs are okay, but if you want something aggressive id go with maybe the H&R sport springs, hotchkis springs, or maybe tein htechs. all great springs and can go with the trd shocks (i can install them no problem, just let me know)

Man, sorry I missed the install meet. Looks like you guys had a lot of fun and did some great mods. I wasn't avaliable that day anyway *even if I had known about it*.
Any other meets in the near future? Now that I have started doing some basic mods I definitely want to meet you guys to get ideas for more advanced stuff!
