So this weekend I travelled to MD to purchase another 06 PW scion xA, my previous one being totalled due to me trying to sleep and drive. Yesterday I installed the JDM front end and I must say it fit perfect. The previous installation on the wrecked car, still had the bumper not lining up with the fender on the side the majority of the damage was on, obviously showing frame damage left unrepaired. The front lip of the JDM portion was not installed properly, although I left the instructions and all hardware with the shop, I will have to go in and install the clips for the lip to keep the upper portion up and not popped out. I know the car was rushed to be finished, as the second time I tried to take delivery was just before Christmas, so alot of stuff was missed. I'm glad I have another quality platform to work with, instead of trying to salvage what was left of the previous one.

I am going today to have my SSR SP1R wheels installed, that have been sitting at the shop for three months. Maybe if I have time, I will install the rear lip, OEM Kenstyle RS 3.0, JDM Toyota tail lights, and JDM IST center console box.

I'll see if I have time to snap a few pics too.

 

So envy you with the SSR SP1R's! and of course being one of your fans I hope for the best and better see pics of the final result!!!!!!!!!

In fact a photo shoot would be appropriate

 

here are some pics, try not to be too harsh, it will be getting dropped on tein ss+p soon.

Kenstyle RS3.0 rear lip still needs to be installed, ehhh.... might get to that tomorrow.
Ordering the coilovers tomorrow as well.

 

i like it. the front lip is so nice. good work.

 

Good to hear that the JDM grill fits the 06 model, i'm getting one

 

No no, the JDM sport grill WILL NOT FIT the 2006 front bumper without modification that I am not willing to do. You must convert to an 05 bumper.

 

Lower it yet?

 

not yet, trying to fab a mounting location for the edfc, then i need to modify my quarter panels so the rear will have plenty of clearance.

 

for what? you have to modify for coils?

 

the offset of the wheels requires that i modify the rear quarter to allow clearance with the ride height.

 

are you sure? Looks pretty normal to me. I mean, rolling the fenders or install shims but not serious mods.

 

i'll be doing what fender rolling does, but i don't want to loose the sharp edge on the quarter, so it will be done with a dead blow hammer.

 

oic

 

you work for Minolta by chance? or those just decals on the bike?

 

no i don't work for konica minolta, it just made a moto gp replica paint scheme for my cbr929rr. i liked the factory repsol replicas, and just made my own based on which bike i thought looked best.

here are a couple better pics

 

^ badass, i'm a tech for them and i have their race winning bike as my wallpaper on the work laptop =p

 

What exactly did you change?? As in what parts?? Bumper, fenders, lip, etc..
