I second that, just get in touch with Gabe at Precisionmuffler.com

I think he's lowered just about every Scion in the South Bay.

I had Gabe install my springs, struts, and swaybars for $215 total. Springs would just be $65 for xa/xb. I would recommend him.

lowering a tC does take some work too, the rear is not fun if you haven't done one already.
