Nice and congrats!! I was gonna wait for the RS, but when I found out it was gonna be yellow I lost interest. I like eveything it has, but I'm a dark color exterior guy! Scion should offer one dark and one light exterior color. Lol...

Ha if I could have chosen the body color it would be white, but the yellow looks so mean In person! I was surprised how much I like it.

+1 for not having the holes drilled, I didn't get that lucky with my RS5 since all the cars that arrive in TX have the holes drilled at the dealer(unless you order a car and tell them not to).

I've let them put the plates on in the past but if that lower grille can fit a plate somehow I'll tell them not to drill holes. Right after I pick up my car, I'm going down the street to my friends shop to install my HID's. He may be able to figure something out. If everything works out, I'll post pics.

Two options I've seen to mount a front plate without drilling.

1. A guys named bbszero sells them here for about $35 (A few others and I have this one)*
2. PTuning sells a towhook mounted version here for $70 (Wellesley & 1stOne have this one)

EDIT 2: I fixed the link.

Thanks but that's for the tow hook mount. I want to mount in the center on the lower grille, if that's possible.

Not sure how I screwed up the link the first time, but I fixed it. Look at my build thread to see how I had it (test fit only) on my car and try the bbszero link again to buy a set for yourself. Beauty of the ones I bought is you can mount them anywhere on your front grille.

Quick question:

I see a lot of people posting pics of the car and in all of the pics I have seen with the rear hatch open, I have not seen one of the pop on covers for the cargo area (that block the view of the trunk storage when hatch is closed). Did it come with one?

Trunk cover is optional and kinda pricey for $129. However if you plan on a dark tint, you can't see inside the trunk.
