Default Got my bB bible...

so sweet.... my head is spinnign from the pics of the bB on 15x9 and 15x10 rims or the nkb company bB or any of the hundreds of bBs featured, minus the weird retro "california" tuned bBs. there was even a limo! murakami's bB is in there as well. cool thing to have is you're looking for jdm styling cues.


ps. they pay(if the advertising is correct) like 80 dollars for a scion front badge and a scion rear badge!! all of us who have debadged our xbs should set up some sort of overseas trade for cool jdm stuff for all our useless badges!!

We hope to get our hands on a few copies of VOL 1 for you guys.

But honestly VOL 2 has a lot more cool stuff IMO.

We are working on getting more text and materials for us all to drool over.

VOL 2 seems to have more conservative wheel fitments, but it's sill RAD.

Hey Danny,

SuperAutobacs had Vol 1. As far as I know.. there's nowhere in the BayArea you can get them. Van brought back the rest of the volumes from Japan.

Peace,

im not sure how true this is, but a guy i work with is from japan and he told me that bB stands for black box, and that they only come (or used to) in black. anyone know the validity of this?

Default tommorrow tommorrow...

I read that its called the blackbox too, considering how apt those japanese are on funny names for their cars. I mean I'm a sneeze away from buying a BongoFriendee !
And of course I have the old bB "bible", and the new one is gonna be coming soon...

I call BULLSH!!!T.

There's no way that could only come in only black....Toyota wouldn't allow it.

I'm positive it stands for bling Bling :D

Also J you got a reply on your PM for the Bible

Ok I'm a dumbass....it does stand for black Box because there was a limited intro run in Japan.

But I think my theory of it standing for bling Bling sounds better
