lol!! It's all good. The table is not why I posted the pics However I was the first in the country to have that particular one. That table is a JDM product and is uncommon here. I do not have many passengers and when I do they are not very large Still have the pass. side Airbag and I do not believe the body would end up reaching the table in a collision (unless it was you). heh.

I posted the photos for the drivers Airbag. I hoped it would be a tad more obvious with the photos without having to explain much. It's functional and completes the debadging from the Scion to the Toyota like it is in Japan.

Style is to the individual and I grew bored of the more race type of brushed aluminum type badges of the scions. Certainly a huge diff. from the stuff your doing to your car

 

Thanx. I like that lighted key hole. The one I have been modifying belongs to my accountant. She wanted it to be different but still look like a girls car. She likes detail as is obvious that you do also. Nice work on yours. I tried to talk her into going the IST route but she said no since it was getting soo popular to do. i still try tho.

 

lol yes the lets change 3 badges and think we are jdm yes Some just do the front and keep xA in the rear. Too each there own but I never like to do things 20%. The basic ist badges like the "T" and ist in the rear + the ist front are I guess common and if your in the "scene" since it's a VERY easy mod.

My airbag cost me $450! and took two years to research over diff. obsessive intervals. For anyone that knows me I talked about it for a loooong time. Kind of a PM type of chat though since it's a discussion that can go on forever maybe a JDM/vip style thread will start some day. But even that has plenty of forum sites already.

 

Yes, I like the thoroughness of your conversion. I know what you mean about those that just change a couple badges and leave a stock XA grill. Have you located the blue lenses for the headlights?? Detail is what makes a ride nice n complete. I am suprised there isn't an ist thread.

 

There is an iSt site so most likely most people are there I am lucky cause I have the 06 xA so no need to change the grill. Just the badge. Blue? I have 8k? HID's in the headlights and 3k for the fogs Good enough for me. I beleive the HID iSt conversion kit is like $750 a side? No reason to go that route I think.

Never ending..... I would like to do a fiber glass dash like you did but all black. I fear losing the pass. airbag.

 

kewl. I was refering to the blue tinted lenses. Not the kelvins. I noticed it on ist CHAN's post. Looked nice. But I know, it all adds up. $$$$$$$$$$$

 

I'm going the JDM route, but more specifically the TRD Sports M version of the iSt.

 

James, if you want to preach about being JDM, then please convert your car to RHD while you're at it.

Nice Rav4 steering wheel, though.

 

Wow preach?? Who's preaching? It's unfortunate your so unwilling to be cool and adult like. I felt you were above all that man. Too many people on SL and other forums that know little and talk loud.

Very unfortunate. The only thing you could come up with is the get a RHD attack? Zack... what a jack... Go back to your team iSt site with the rest of your children and leave well alone. I have.

 

Would love to see this finished.

 

Sorry man, I didn't mean for that to come off as aggressive as it did, I was speedreading through the last page and misinterpreted your comments as a holier-than-thou approach towards those who don't do the full JDM badge package.

You should do a RHD conversion, though.

 

i'm happy with my edm spec car

 

I will not deny being a bit pridefull of all the work I have done. But as you well know I am not alone when it comes to Big ego's with xA owners. Sorry if I got heated. I think some back history with us and your site + your comment brought back some defensiveness. No need I think to get detailed I am sure you agree.

I say leave it alone. Glad you responded and moving on no harm done. Love seeing the improvements done on any xA including my own. Why I still post there.

PS: I am actually doing allot of investigation into importing an iSt with low mileage but there are allot of tedious issues that need to be done to meet US safety req's and being a daily right now with school it's a very difficult project to go full JDM import. Pretty much will cost about the same as buying a new xA ($11-15k) after all is said and done. Having already spent about what $10K on my car mods over cost of the car I would have done allot better doing this from the very beginning 3yrs ago. I so wish I knew what I know now, then.

 

just make sure its the awd version of the it pls make it the awd

 

Meh! It's a 1.3 ltr! Why bother with and AWD with HP lower than the 1.5 xA? At least I think this is the situation. I might be able to do AWD with the 1.5 but the same question applies. why? Gimmie a 2.4ltr with an awd so I can actually have an engine that can take advantage of 4 wheels

KK back on topic?

Purchased these the other day Also have been waiting for hte day to buy these for about 2yrs. Well these types. I wanted the Meisters but since the style change the Dish seemed more appropriate. Got these for a great deal. Will be re-finishing the faces and re-polishing the them "both sides"
Euroline 4x100/5x100

18x8+25 18x8.5+25



Might be in a booth at SEMA so I am praying to get everything done by then.

PS: I did not take the pic

 

Ooops wait it's not on the car sorry. Off topic still. Man I need to get my stuff done so I can take photos of them on the car.

 

Here is a quick post up. the rest of the pics and specs are HERE

 

Great job. Clean too.

Would love to see the future mod list finished. TTE-TRD Supercharger FTW. Gotta respect all the TRD homework you have to have done.
