My 2011 Scion tC mods
#41
OK so here is another mod I did this weekend and what a pain in the butt it was. I ended up breaking something in the middle control
**** that had the button for the rear defogger, Well that button does not work anymore and now it does not click for each number that
you set it to. Now I have to see how much the dealer is going to rape me for that part. Anyway off the subject I painted my trims but I'm
not happy with it I made a lot of mistakes and now I want to take all the paint off and redo it. I just need to figure out what to use to get
all the paint off to start over. Here are the pics.

I got the paint from a company who makes paint for the auto companies using my color code for the car. I then put 4 coats of plastic primer waiting 10 to 15 min between coats. I then put 4 coats of the base paint again waiting 10 to 15 min between coats. And last I put 4 coats of the clear coat waitin 10 to 15 min between coats. Then. Waited 4 hours before putting back on. I'm from south amboy.

Sad to say that I had to take off the tail lights and put the old ones back on. To my surprise
they were not sealed right. after 3 days of raining they both had water and condensation in them.
I was so upset. As I tried to open it to dry it out I cracked one so $200.00 down the drain. Oh well
guess I will wait for someone to make better tail lights.

Ah South Amboy. I'm from North Jersey.
Love what you've done with your car so far. You inspired me to get off my a$$ and start doing some interior work. Photos coming soon.
How do you like the the EZ-lip?

This actually looks pretty great! I was actually looking into getting this myself but idk how it looks when you look at the car as a whole (with only the front lip being black and all). If you can, can you post a pic of your car from the side? Just want to know how it looks before I choose to buy lol cuz its either that or save up and get a 5:AD Kit since I don't really like the RS lip lol
