I actually like the way it looks with the vinyl on for that color... everything else is lookin great though!

How do you like the DNX5120? Thats the same unit I have in my tC1 and I really love it.

 

Thanks man. I'll try this one first when I get my tC.

The vinyl bothers me on all the Scions, looks good without

 

mospeedtc, how is the fitting with this kit? I always hear how the metra kit usually has gaps.

they looks almost the same-except for the part that bolts in, so I'm just wondering if that makes a different in fitting/avoiding gaps

 

imo. i think it looks good with it. it goes with your scion graphic at the bottom.

 

I figured and have already gotten mixed reactions from friends about the vinyl removal. Guess its one of those personal taste kinda things

BATMAN- I like the unit, now that I understand it a little more. I still liked my Alpine from my first gen better but this one has NAV so cant argue

JUSTIN- Its not perfect but seems pretty damn close. Im about 90% satified with the fitment and all.

 

Just caught this thread, congrats on the new tC Mo. Vinyl removal is pretty personal, it looks great on my white xB but looked horrible on the two-tone w/ silver top. Hope you're happy with it because to order replacement vinyl precut is rediculous, would have ran me about $120 for all four doors on the box.

 

look at "this is hot!" thread. what yours could look like if you two tone it orange and black lol.

 

I saw it also and thought the same thing LOL....

Just ordered a sub, amp and wiring now gotta got to home depot for supplies

Also engine cover... or powder coating the valve cover?

 

Finished my first attempt at building a subwoofer enclosure and am kinda "Meh" about the finished results. I have enought wood for a 2nd go at it but I'll rock this one until I feel like redoing it. Sound Amazing though. I'll post pics later.

 

Very nice Mo.
Met you I've before when you were ptunified.

Nice to see you in a scion again.

 

Finally got around to uploading some shots of what Ive been up to the past 2 say . Did a false floor attempt and tweaked the tails a bit.

nice! for some reason i like the satin look of the tails. goes nice with the color!

 

Thats how I felt when I did it. Cement is a Dull=ish color so dulled out looking tails would play along with it

If I hate them later nothing a wetsand and buffing wont restore

 

Love it!...all of it!

 

+1 on the tailights

 

How did you get the frosted look on the tails?

 

With mad skillz!!!

Wet sand with 1000grit and then some Matte finish clear coat did the trick.

 

so whats next to mod?

 

2nd reverse light LOL.... doing the small cheap stuff now. Then I'll stop while I save up for some wheels and tires.
