You're right. Looks much more like a Ford Focus... I was focusing more on the back half.

I agree, it looks like a Focus hatchback. I think the graphics would look good on an xA.

Personally, I think vinyl graphics are kinda ricey, If I was you I would go the distance and get sprayed on grafics. That way they look better, last longer, and give your ride more character. Besides, when you go to take them off in the future, you're gonna have the outline all along your car.

Also, it depends what you have on the car right now. If its stock, it will look stupid.

i like graphicse but they can be dicey. more often than not, it'll look better in your head than they do in reality. go for it if you have the money to throw away in case you decide you don't like the end result.

we try to be up front with all and give everyone a stright and honest answer. but what ever you happen to do with your car, ultimately the car is yours, and so is the decition. if you get it, post some pics, I much rather see them here than at "laughatrice.com". No scions yet.

I share the opinion with the graphics = rice, I was origionally going to have graphics but fell in love with the paint color so much I decided on two-tone. It's more appreciated by the masses as well.

graphics do not equal rice. if it's done well, it's just something to make your car look a little better. if you go overboard with it, it's just lame. i remember when graphics were the sh*t and every wack car on the road had some crazy design splashed all over the place and 99% of people thought it was cool. the trend has sort of run it's course though so most people knock it.

if it's done right and isn't an eye sore, i'm sure you'll get props. but like i said, be careful because a lot of times what you think it'll look like won't be the reality.

and i think it would look much better if you went with black instead of blue. silver and black goes better than silver and blue imo.
