the color can cost me 8$
the primer I bought cost me 22$ and the clear was a nifty 26$ I’m pretty sure I got ripped off on the primer and clear but the guy said it’ll last in heat.


the reason i bought a scion was so i can do alot to a 4 banger and save on gas. here in california gas is nuts, i dont know how it is in bush country. if i wanted a better car i would of gotten my ford f150 SVT, but then that car has all the bells and whistles and i wouldn't be able to do much to it.

but thank you for all the kind words, this proves i can't post ____ on scion life without negative comments, proves that the scion community isn't as great as it seems.

 

Its not that the scion community isn't that great...
Anywhere you go, you will find someone who plays the bully. And, they like to bring others down just to look like the top dog. It's rather annoying to me, that's why I said something. I am not meaning to start a fight. But, you shouldn't be dissin' someone's ideas--even if it is cheap or tacky or if it has already been done. If they like it and it makes them happy, how is it harming you?It's not! So, why should people be so negative? If you see something you don't like or think is ignorant in a thread, why not just skip it and go to the next one? Anyone out there have a sufficient explanation for that? If so... I'd like to hear it.
I guess this is all really about how you can control your negativity. Some people can't keep it to themselves...

 

Its your car, so your entitled to your opinion,


If i recall you asked for peoples opinions,

You asked if people liked it, You cant expect 100% positive remarks, so if you cant take some negative critisizm then dont post pictures of your handy work and certainly dont ask what people think about it.

 

but this is on the inside of your car, not the engine bay. does anyone see your engine bay when they're sitting in your car looking at your bright blue/non-matching center console?

just because my tail lights are red doesn't mean i'm going to take out the headliner and spray paint it red.

i'm not trying to be a dick, but when you post things on here you're going to get different opinions. good & bad.

 

true but since i attend many scion events with my team, my car normally will have everything open. hood, back, doors... people look. just because u can't see dirt behind the tier doesn't you shouldn't clean it.




as for u mr. 96 (slowpoke), you seem to make negative comments about everything.. it's fine, i thank you.


and it's not! Crafter wrote:

Take the advice from someone who has been there and done that, painted interior is so 1996....


change that to 'slowpoke wrote:'

 

I only give negative comments on things that in my opinion dont look good. i havent really seen anything done to a tc that i like yet, most of the tc's here are stock. So there isnt much to comment on.

Again, its my opinion, when you make a post like this asking for opinions you will get some that like it, and some that wont. I wouldnt take it a serious as you are., who cares if i dont like your ricer mods, big deal move on.

 

if i paint my interior i like to be color SILVER or FLINT MICA, just a simple look and my SEATS will be FLINT MICA or PLAIN BLACK, some of my color idea too.....

 

Just fyi guys...theres a difference between a conflicting opinion and being just plain rude...

 

Usually only when the original poster gets butt hurt do they interpret the opinion as rude.

 

i'm not hurt, i dont care, i asked if it was girly... since its not.. i dont care... making a comment that u dont like is fine, but saying it's cheap and tacky when u haven’t seen it in person to see what detailed work it really is... thats the rude part.

 

Dude, you just did it again. Drop it, just like you said.

FYI, If anyone does want to paint the silver areas on their scions, go right ahead. These pieces are painted silver form the factory not molded in silver, so you wont have a problem of peeling or cracking like painting bare plastic. Just clean it really good, its paint. If you have questions about painting these email me at any time, I could walk you through it if needed.

 

Painting your interior parts is just dumb. That is unless you man up and do it right and take it to a bodyshop and have it done correctly...like a hotrod or a minitruck.

Spraypaint is not of sufficient quality for your car's surfaces. You guys all spend tons of $ for the highest end parts and components, then go and ____ up your car with spraypaint. Automotive paint is of high quality and cheap enough to ahve small pieces painted rerasonably.

Spray painting is not a mod, it is a dumb idea that you will regret later. So it re-covering parts of tyour interior. If you are gonna do it, do it right. DOn't just put in patches of blue or green. Oh, and btw...tweed is out.

 

n2htwlz is a Pro, he uses pro quality tools, but when they posted pictures he got the same reaction.
you would of said soemthing negative either way, because you dont have the ***** to mess with your mom's car, since you didn't Pay for your own car, you are having trouble looking at somthing You want but can't Have.

 

either way i liked what i did, some people did as well. thank you, this discussion should of been over 2 pages ago.

 

Hahaa wow, i know that wasnt directed at me.

 

Mods, lock this topic. New members reading this just trying to see what people do to their Scions like me are starting to wonder if they should regret the decision to register.

 

Unfortunately you will see stuff like this all over the place. Don't regret registering. This is a great forum to get ideas, talk to people and just check stuff out. Don’t let the few who want to bash others sway you on the site.

 

they're negative comments not even directed to you, you're pretty much brand new on this board, and you're telling mods to lock the thread? you newbs crack me up.

 

man i wish there was a way to turn off all comments and just post pictures for people who are intresting in somthing diff...

slowpoke no it wasn't even though u were a honda dude, u sound like u did mods on ur own... and probebly spent a ____ load on turbo stuff...

 

12k plus into the crx, and about 6 k in the si. everything on that car was installed by me.

both were jacked. Im not trying to be rude, but trust me give it a couple of weeks its giong to start flaking etc.... it just doesnt look good, the tc interior is perfect as is without color, what is the exterior of your car?
