Thanks so much! Looks like it just needs some adjustments. I ordered the Torque Solutions Hangers so it should get that fixed up!

PS: this pic is awesome!

 

i used to be FM on my 08...always wanted gold/bronze rims with it

Youre SW looks good, from one Dan to another. any plans future mod plans to share?

 

No problem, glad it helped. Good luck putting on the hangers

 

I have a lot of things I would like to have but they are not things I have to have, know what I mean?

Examples... I love the 5axis brand and really dig their tC aero kit and wheels.

Though if I had a couple thousand dollars to blow, I'd buy the above and leather seats from Scion. Descendant's intake will be on its way and I want to have new wheels for the summer and use stock for winters.

I'd love to add Descendant's turbo but it just won't happen with the boss around ;P

 

new shoes and a kit are always bomb. agreed that the 5a kit is nice on the tC2

 

So I painted (plastidip) the tC emblems red and it did not work out. The edges were really messy and it just didn't look like it belonged on the car. I did about 3 red coats and 1 clear coat.

Now I have a problem. I took it it all off and I am left with a yellowish square where it was not taped off. You should be able to see it in the first picture. I tried thinner, alcohol, gasoline then soap and nothing worked. Any suggestions?

 

Maybe try a clay bar, those things do wonders!

 

have you tied any kind of compound? if not the clay bar should work..

 

Trying it with a friend tomorrow. He's got some ;) I really hope it works because it looks nasty!

 

I'd try the claybar first.

 

Claybar did not work. The spot is more faded now but still noticeable. Bought this soft paste polisher to try tomorrow!

 

Yeah I meant to say that in my previous post, to try the claybar first because rubbing compound will dull the clear coat (found that out the hard way yesterday morning ). However after Zaino'ing my car you can't tell it's dull anymore (but the touch-up job looks like ____ ).

 

HeyDan... Did you ever figure out why rear is lower than the front? I plan on getting the TRD springs, but I won't if this is how it is.

 

I would suggest you take off the tC emblem before trying to fix the spot. It will make it much easier to get in there with whatever you use and you can always put it back on later, if you want. Second, I would take it to a quality detailer. He'll be able to buff it out and fir that little spot, shouldn't cost too much.

 

you guys are all being ridiculous. sell the car. buy a new one. see...now was that so hard to come up with a logical solution?

 

Better solution: http://bit.ly/jbCkC0

GOGOGOGOGOGO!!

 

I took it to a local shop and they used some G3 on it. It appears to be almost gone now.

Scratch, I like your idea ;)

 

I was able to install it within 30 minutes without taking off bumper or getting the car lifted-- just get under, unscrew some of the panel bolts and you should be able to get to the bulb.

 

^ Wow, on my Celica I had to remove the bumper cover and the fog housings just to change the bulbs to yellow. Well worth it though, lookin' good!
