Been a while, got my front lip painted. couple shots- sincerely apologize for the low quality pics, will try to find time to clean up the tC2 and get some snaps with the EOS 7D.





Mahalos for looking!

 

Hey, how much did you buy the front lip?

 

$595 + Tax from my Scion dealership. Not exactly a smart/cheap buy. But the quality is second to none- and its the only front lip i like that is currently available, besides the TRD RS 7.0 lip.

 

Day off today, with no real plans.
Wiped her down with some detailer, cleaned the wheels, dressed the tires and took some quick shots.











Mahalos for looking!

 

Looks great. When are you getting some new wheels?

 

As of right now- not anytime soon, in terms of the next year. The original plan was to get some new wheels by the end of this year, but i'm content with the look i have now and am more leaning towards other products like a TWM Short Shifter or maybe an exhaust, definitely gonna install the SPC rear camber shims to correct some camber soon.

Never thought i'd actually be satisfied with stock wheels, but i've been leaning towards some TE37's in bronze when i decide its time for a new look. If my budget doesnt agree, then the Gram Lights 57DR's in Gun Blue will suffice.

 

Been a long time since i logged on,

Since then, only added a TWM Short Shifter and gunmetal Big Type R **** and some 15mm FIC Racing Japan Bolt-On Spacers all around.

Here's a few pics of her currently, i know not much, but enjoy.

 

Looks really good

EDIT: Where did you order your coils from? How are they for DD

 

I need you to do me a favor. Spin the collars ALL THE WAY down. Please... for the benefit of this kids... Do us all a favor. You might as well gotten springs...

That black is so sick though, super clean car brudah (Isn't that how Dog pronounces it?)

 

^^X2!!! other then that it looks pretty clean bro

 

standardsuspension.com gotta email directly and they'll send you the PayPal invoice when you're ready to order. I have the R3's, and they come with 10k/8k springs which are way too stiff for daily, running 8k/6k now, and they're not too bad. They do offer custom rates when you order though- so you dont have to be like me and own 2 sets of coilover springs.

 

Haha! Yup- you said it right, and mahalos for the props!

Yea, i agree on lowering it more also, cause these babies can slam. But for now i kinda like the more practical look, plus i cant get into my driveway (i have to reverse into ONLY) lol.

And your suggestion about me just getting springs- haha, i have a set of tein S-techs on the way. Cause these coils are track oriented and even with the softer springs and the dampers set at the lowest setting, i cant rush any bumps in the road with jarring my teeth. Other than that i love how i attack corners.

 

Here are a little more pics. Hope you like.







Mahalos for looking.. i just thought i'd post more- especially since black is so classy when clean.

 

Car looks great! Lip is perfect and ride height perfect! Put a rear spoiler on it!

Shift **** is EXCELLENT too!

 

So you say 8k/6k aren't too bad? What your recommendation be?

 

What are you gonna be using the car for? Just daily? Megan and ksports are good enough. But i bet the Tein's are more comfortable (twin-tube dampers).

 

I am going to be using the car for a DD and some mountain runs

 

Its all personal preference, i know the k-sports come with 7.5k/6k- which should be good for all around driving.

 

Ah ok. I will look into it. I had Megans on my last ride and didn't like the feel for them
