I guess ill bump the thread up. Just bought a AP 07 Scion tC for $13k (sticker says 13, he gave us an extra 1k off) with 15,000 miles (it was on my dad's friends lot, whos a car dealer).

I havent started to customize it yet, but it at least has a $600 aftermarket head unit.

Ill try to get some more fancy shots of it, all I have right now is this one

 

nice pic... welcome to the club!

as for me, almost got the car ready for the start up. Just gotta find time to hit up miami again to finish it up.

 

Oh yeah, sounds nice. Ive only seen one other person IRL with this color and we both starred at eachother (I sped up to catch up to him) and we just like smiled, haha. Anyway, I first didnt like the color THAT much because I thought it was girly, but it actually isnt that bad. In the rain/dark, it looks like a nice silver.

And all I am doing to it are minor mods, so it will be easier to sell this car later (probably lip spoiler that isnt drilled, its taped, maybe springs, tint, and thats basically it).

 

haha... thats how it starts my friend...

 

wow, 15k miles on an 07, thats frickin sweet! good find! Auto or 5speed?

trust me, i think every male AP owner feels the same at first, but its one of the rarer tc colors, especially modded ones, and it stands out from all the blue/black/white/silver out there.

heres some motivation for ya!

looks good man... love the front lip. like the lugs too

 

i always liked MB's on AP, looking good!

 

Thanks, guys I just got a new camera too Canon T2I looking forward to learn how to use DSLR camera. Still debating if I should get a CF hood or not.

Nice AP's everyone. Ill be posting pictures up soon of mine. Fast question though, what are your guys' opinions on APT fog lights? I am trying to decide if I should just go normal, tint the glass cover of it to yellow, or get yellow bulbs, or the tint and the bulb.

 

I had the same problem I couldn't deceide what I wanted either the yellow tint or just clear, I left it clear and got yellow bulb, mines are also apt fogs mines were pretty hard to install since I have the oem lip kit, should be a breeze if you don't.

 

Nice, haha.

Mine is auto, i dont mind that much but I often see hate comments on Youtube about automatic cars.

I agree, the color has really grown on me. When I first got it I thought it was a really girly color, then realized what a nice color it was. At night/rain, its silver. Ive only seen one other AP other than mine. Hopefully my friend can stop being lazy and take some shots, I havent done much to it but working on it.

 

Dont worry mine is also Auto hehe, I just got my hood this weekend off another scion life member here locally thought I snap a few pics after a quick carwash also.

Nothing like a little Cali rain 8]

 

Ah, I am so jealous. I was considering a CF hood too. My uncle said a cf hood and a cf lip spoiler would be cool. Nice ride though <3

 

Thank you I'm a sucker for Carbon Fiber it actually brings out the Azure Pearl color more, I'm in desperate need of an exhaust but I am afraid of how it would sound with the auto tranny. Did you end up making your decisions on those APT fog light?

 

Waiting for them to get in stock, should be end of this month.

Here is my list so far of possible upgrades:

fogs with hyper yellow
HID's
tint
coils/springs
badgless grill
intake
spacers - maybe

I cant find any good badgeless grills on eBay or find anything here sadly. What grill did you buy?

 

Nice list you got going my grill were off of ebay they are sort of like the VRD replica, might be able to find them if you searched for "VRD Grills" Im also interested in the spacer but I wouldnt know which one to get Im on 17x7 my rear wheel looks a little to much inside of the fender.

 

Bumping this since I have not posted a picture. Meh, front is similar to like 75% of modded tC's out there

[attach][/attach]

Hopefully more to come, waiting to see what type of drop I wnat (rokkor/raceland coils or just springs).

 

New Pictures after Spring Install.
