Default my SW tC on Stechs...PIX.

so finally got my S techs put on and wow...what a drop.

i love the way this car looks lowered. gives it such a feel compaired to stock.
i have gotten many comments about it looking much much better than the stock height.

Spring Shot!


Front After!

Rear After!


AFTER!


and here is what i was scared of..but i had the same problem with my old BMW.

well the shop owner is a friend of mine and they had never worked on a scion until mine. so this install took like 3.5-4 hours(note they werent working 100% on just my car.)
at the end i paid $140. should be cheaper but they get paid by the hour not the job.

Car looks great!

Did your car come with the ground effects of did you install them after you already had the car? Im wondering because it looks like the white is slightly off compared to the rest of the car. Is it just the pics or does it really not quite match 100%? I was looking at buying the kit, but I just dont know...

i havent had a problem yet... just have to watch when pulling too far into a parking space. other wise..no problems with speed bumps and or pulling into a steep drive way

VIP_tC. i see what you mean in the 1st picture, that is because of the lighting.. but the color is right on.. i got the car with the ground effects already installed and couldnt be happier. it really does give it a overall look and stance with it over the NON ground effects.

WOW! Very nice! I'll be getting my SW TC in a few weeks. Damn I'm so behind... How low was that drop? Just curious because that's the exact height I want my future TC to be. Thanks for your input
