My build has begun... slowly. Edwardl's build thread
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.
Traded a fellow SL member for his 06 tails.
STICKERS!
That's all for now and probably for a while. Coming up next is an RS1 lipkit.
DoctorIsotope 3" reduction short shifter!
Repainted valve cover wrinkle red. HPS short ram intake in wrinkle black
UPDATE!!
OH ____ HUGE BOXES!
Aww nevermind it's just fake wheels
215/40 r18 nankangs, biting off that guy with the silver tC :p

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!
