August 2010 I purchased my first new car. 2010 Scion tC in flint mica. It took a while before I had enough money to do any real work to it so I started by painting the valve cover.

Next I got Sean from LEDMod.com to do an LED swap on my hvac and gauges to white.

Then I came along some money so I went with some raceland coilovers and dropped it down low.

Then this came in the mail:

And my girlfriend helped me throw it on in 20 minutes.

x_Batman_x 12-09-2010 10:36 PM

jeremydoc 12-10-2010 12:48 AM

niiice. i might consider doing that when i get money

Joyride 12-10-2010 09:34 PM

RIGHT EXHAUST FOR THE WIN!!!!!!

edwardl 12-11-2010 03:41 AM

Thanks for all the compliments on the exhaust. I watched a lot of youtube videos to see which exhaust had that right sound I was looking for. Ended up between the tanabe concept g and the borla. Borla looked too factory for me so I went with the tanabe. Love it!

DJ08tC 12-11-2010 03:25 PM

wait until it breaks in, you will love it even more!!

edwardl 12-18-2010 11:51 PM

Just bought some 06 taillights from scionlife user furn4ce. As long as there are no problems, I'll replace my factory ricer tails. Cant wait!

Murphys_Law 12-19-2010 03:58 AM

Blk5speed07 12-21-2010 01:12 PM
