stickers are not working for ya bro......no comments about the wing because nobody can get past the decals. Very nice car, but clean it up!! The one on the top of the windshield and the ones along the sideskirt could be ok, but the rest are overkill!

agree with nebster, for you to pay out of your pocket for the decals, after you pay the shop for parts and labor so that your car can go to shows and make them more money is alittle much, the rollcall along the botom of the door isnt too bad, but those p-tuning decals are alittle much for nothing, unless they use you in a ad or throw some stuff your way

looks good and clean. like most the spoiler i normally wouldnt get but it flows "ok" with the car, if you like it then its all good. i just hope you dont have the "ricer" exhaust cuz then i'll overload on "ricer-ness" (thats a new word). keep up those mods!

eh the stickers don't do it for me, but it's all up to you - some people dig the stickers, some people don't.

I like the "stickers" on the car, matches with the theme you're going for. Although like someone else said, to a real enthusiast a track car means functional, lightweight wheels. It would look much better if you put a nice set of 17x8's on the car instead of the 19s. Look more performance orientated.

But the car fits the theme your going for great. I would agree with it much more if you were getting at least some free dyno tunes or something from PTuning for the advertisement but it's not up to me to decide.

All in all, the car is easily twice as good looking as almost every car i've seen on SL in the mild category.

I'm not trying to get anything free out of it with the "stickers" but as for the PTUNING logo, they are my local performance shop. They have helped me out more times than i can count. When you find a shop that does excellent work, treats you like a human being, and cares a lot about the Scion community, i was more than happy support them. Many shops don't advertise in magazines unless they are huge parts distributor because it isn't worth it. Performance shops build reputations by word of mouth. If someone sees my car at a show, track or on the road, they will tend to look at what's been done and ask "where did you get your work done?"

As for the other ones, i have been through many different parts on this car until i found something that was really worth it. I have found that when a product has quality, i have a tendency to voice my opinion about it. This is my way of saying that i support the aftermarket community and not buying knockoffs that hurt the sales of the REAL companies.

Look in a tuner magazine and what do you see in a track coverage article. Many cars have "stickers" all over the car. I'm not saying that these people aren't sponsored by them but you know not all of them are. They are just showing their support for the parts that they know work well.

Although i'm showing my car now, it will be raced next year. I wanted to go for a more performance aspect when redoing the car for this year. I put a lot of quality parts into the car so that when i'm ready to start racing, i have little else to do. Wheels, tires, rollcage, lose some more weight and i'm ready to race.

Hey, at least i don't have big "APC" or "type R" stickers on the car

shouldt matter if you pay out of pocket for stickers, or if you are sponsored. like i have said countless times, what was scions slogan??? "what moves you".

i dont know why it bothers people soo much what people do to their own car. but wait the tC is such a high end car to put silly stickers on it huh....lame... you guys make no sense.

remember this, we all started with the same blank canvas, what we do to it is ou r own artistic view....


flame on flame boys, i got my suit on

Well, that's what i was after. A race theme TC that nobody else had. I haven't seen any other TC's like mine the way it is now.

Either way, thanks for the good and not so good comments.

PTuning is awesome, the service there is outstanding! I bought my short shifter from there, and i'm going back next week to get my car aligned...seemed to be the only place that will do it for a reasonable price, and F the haters...if you like it, you like it. Me personaly i'm not a sticker person, but whatever floats your boat ya know!

Race theme... like, Race Inspired?

Stickers are all cosmetics... you could say they enhance the car's appearance.

It's cool though. If it's moving you then more power to you. Scion could use more people who buck the wider populace's opinions.
