well...NO.

just giving you a hard time bro, its good that you are responsible at 16.

however, i think that in a way mom and dad have helped you, right?
you cant have much credit, if anything, at age 16, right? so they must have helped you by co-signing when you got your tc? It is highly unlikely you or any 16 year old can afford car insurance unless youre on your parents account.
So, in a way, they've helped you. I'm not bashing you at all, so dont think I am doing just that.
by the way...this guy:

"No wonder why you have so much poopie done to your car when you're only 16, Look at the modded BMW 5 series, and the MB coupe sitting there in the driveway.

Mom and Dad are nice to you eh?"

is just jealous his mom and dad arent as nice like your mom and dad are to you..hes probably bone stock.

sounds like a hater to me.
Errr...no. Stfu plz. I'm just not spoiled to where I get a brand new car at 16 which will probably be wrecked in a year. I bought my first car, a 93 Accord Coupe, and put all of my money which I worked for in it. H22 swap, tein coilovers, jdm one piece headlights, jdm power folding mirrors, jdm bumper pole, and a 3000W stereo system.

I have learned that it is a huge mistake to spend so much money on a car, because you never know when some Russian _____ is going to change lanes right into your car and total it, which happened to me.

Sure you can bet I won't keep my tC stock, it's hard to keep any car that way, but I'll only put on an intake and exhaust.


I don't want a car to be bought for me, sure my parents could easily afford it (we are a 3 bimmer family), but I like to work for things. Nothing ____es me off more then seeing some lame ___ teenager rolling in his nice ___ car which his parents bought for him. I see that way too often in a college town.

i wouldnt mind shaving the scion out, molding that hatch piece to the rest of that hatch, but keep the 3rd brake light.

problem with molding (if you do)... if the motor for the hatch gets blown... yo umight have to do alot of work to replace it

we... i dont know how the motor is assembled... but you could take the plastic liner of the hatch from the inside... dont know if the motor is attached to that little hatch piece though....

food for thought... i might do this in a year...

The motor that opens the trunk is not connected to the plastic piece on the exterior of the hatch. The release button (obviously) is.

i kinda agree that it doesnt look all that hot. i think if the scion logo was shaved, and that piece was molded into the hatch, it would look alot better.

i also think how taek has it now would look alot better if he had a spoiler that had a 3rd brake light in it

the tC is stick on

the scion has 2 holes drilled that hold it on, plus it is recessed a little.
