Thanks for all the compliments

Exhaust is #1 on my next list, thinking maybe a different wheel combo but undecided cause everyone tells me what I have is what should be on it. As you can see from my profile I am no scion stranger & gold is kinda my thing ;) Well Anywho More things to come trust me !

I welcome all & any Ideas though as I know the after market parts are not as common for the xA & sometimes find myself lost on what to do next ?

xadragon love the rear spoiler, any idea on where to pick one up ????

Thanks all, plans are in the works to do a lil powder coating. Gonna do the rim lips in black chrome & keep the center gold. Got a few other things coming up too.

Please, let me know where I could get that oem spoiler from if someone remembers

there are a bunch of oem spoiler floating around, but they are usually never in the color that someone wants them.
I have a flint mica, two others in SD have an indigo ink pearl and a black cherry pearl.

I really like that look. Been looking at rims like that for a while (15's?).

Wondering if you get any rub taking sharp turns (like super sharp/fast). Do the rims/tires help the understeer at all?

I have a silver xa with a stock body as well, and been wondering if anyone else was into the clean look!

Seem like a big Mk1/Mk2 golf fan...old school FTW!


in good regards,


Regis

Your ride looks good!
Are you gonna drop it any lower?
I think it would look great, though you might rub if you did.

Here's the link to the OEM spoilers, it comes out to $79.
The $10 shipping is optional.

thank you everyone for the good words ! I havent had a chance to get on & answer anyone.

To answer a few of the questions

I would love nothing more than to go lower but it will without a doubt rub. I am thinking of maybe redoing the whole setup. maybe 17 or 18" with a resonable offset & maybe going air or coilovers. Very undecided at the moment because I love the look I currently have I just feel so limited on what i can do without major fender modding. The good thing is I have a powder coater i know with unbeatable prices so I am not limited to color on any wheels I get. Gold has always kind of been my thing if you couldnt tell by my old xB in my profile, now I can run any rim i want & powder coat them gold if they dont come in gold

I never had one rubbing issue untill I got into a bad argument with my fiance, my temper kicked in & I flew over about 5 speed bumps. Ripped the rear tires to hell as well as bent down the rear fender lips. no matter how many times I try to knock the lips back it rubs over everything & anything now. I think I may have ____ed off the rear springs. The Scion gods are very displeased with me & I am ashamed LOL

The wheels where a major help with the understeer, & are 100 times better in the rain then the stocks. I have the stocks back on & had to re-train myself on how to drive the car in weather & around corners. Amazing the difference they made. The only good thing & this may be in my head, but I am finding that I am visiting the gas station less with the stockers back on.
