does anybody know were to get to JDM bB rear hatch.

 

Japan!



seriously, try asking the sponsors for SL who specialize in JDM material (e.g. scionsport.com). I'm sure they could special order what ever you need from Japan

 

Why do you want a jdm rear hatch? What are the differences?

try http://www.newscionparts.com/

 

theres no license plate, its smooth. the license plate goes in the bumper.

 

oh ic...

 

its clean and makes the back of the box look.........boxier.

 

And don't forget, the glass is not tinted. It'll cost an arm and a leg to get one shipped from Japan, if you can find oone intact.

 

would a bb hatch even fit on an xb hatch? are bbs a couple inches skinnier than xbs?

i wonder if the japanese made the xbs fatter than the bbs to go along with their idea that we're fat and lazy. hehe, thatd be funny

 

Looks aright...but definitely not worth the money that you would pay for it to get sent over here not guaranteeing its in good condition like squirrel said before

 

maybe i can just shave it and kida fake it . maybe?! or maybe i should shut up and spend the money on suiciding the rear doors.

 

Suicide the rear doors!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i have yet to see it done sucessfully

 

i know a bunch of body guys that havr looked at it and said "its doable"
i dont know what that means but well see. gonna shave the rear handles and put popers on em. it should be cool

 

it's a toss up to which one might be cheaper (to order one or to custom bodywork your stock one) as the handle for the NCP30 model (older model) is shaped/sized different from the NCP31 (newer model). the older model is also placed a little lower then the newer model. i can tell you that shipping from japan will be a pain and will be an even bigger dent in your wallet if you lived farther on the east coast side. keeping in mind shipping a whole car from japan can range from $2-5k and bodykits can even run $500+. if you can find an importer that brings in bulk quantities of parts from japan it may be cheaper to piggyback.

 

Once the price of shipping is figured in, you might as well pay a really good body shop to fill it in and to add a door popper for you.

The bB rear hatch will prolly fit, but the glass will need to be changed and the hacth itself will prolly need to be painted also.

A few peeps here in the Nor*Cal area have the hatches shaved. They look nice and clean also.

The only problem I would have, is where to mount the license plate. I can't mount it in the rear window as its tinted.

 

i figure if you import the rear hatch, might as well get the rear bumper. keep inmind your rear plate has to be illuminated at night

 

i might just have a body shop shave it in, and get a jdm rear bumper. as for the lighting i canjust run wires from the rear side markers witch i will probably shave too i think that will work though. any more thoughts that you guys have will be great thanx!!!

 

If you get the bB rear bumper, get the version 2 bumper. The version 2 bumper is more compatible for use w/ our bumper bar/support.

 

hehe Pics when done!

 

thanx will do. might be a little bit gotta save some $$$$$.
