Picked it up on Saturday. Since then got a short antenna from honda and rear dome blue 24 led light and the cargo spider net. more pics to come

 

Welcome to the tC2 forums

 

Just a quick shot with my phone.

 

I picked this up two weeks ago. Only had rear lip spoiler, carbon fiber stubby antenna, new leather shift ****, and clear bra on door cups on for now.

 

Had it for a week. However I found that its virtually impossible to keep this car clean/scratch free. Can someone please post a video or some suggestions on how to wash it, what products, and how much they cost.

 

Welcome to the club.

And there is at least 1 thread already dedicated to cleaning products and tips. I'd post the link but I'm on my phone.

 

check it out

 

Is this rain or you just washed the car? Did the drops turn into ugly spots??

 

It's rain. I love how raindrops look on the black... but unfortunately, yes, it dirtied her up a bit. Nothing a little bath couldn't take care of the day after though.

 

This is for you then ;)

 

Until vanity plates come in, I get to have a scion without the front plate!

 

Sexy. And in return, the start of the new color scheme!
**note the emblem**

 

black and yellow! black and yellow! black and yellow!


haha just kidding...the bronze is a really nice touch with black...i especially like how you just did the "scion" and not the whole ring around

how does the rear look?

 

I actually haven't done the rear with the gold coloring yet. I did it all black a while back but the double sided tape I used was too thick and you can see it. I got some new tape and will paint/re-stick the rear emblem in the coming days.. the front was my test subject ;p

 

Just posted these in my build thread

^ i see your red valve caps... i got blue... lolz

 

 

How did you get the red around front logo/emblem?

 

The front is clipped into the bumper. i did a little tugging to get it out. After its out the scion emblem pulls out of the oval black plastic.. I just painted the plastic then put it back together. The rear one was much trickier. it is 3m taped and has two pegs that go into the garnish. A heat gun and floss to get that off then goo gone to get the remainder tape off. then i cut out a piece of red vinyl and stuck it to the garnish then sealed her all up.. heres a pic of the rear one...
