Default New to ScionLife...Introducing Fusion-Ti's xB and AE86

Greetings! I've been reading the forums for a little over a year (since I bought the xB), but I've finally got some pictures together on the progress of the box. Since I've gotten it in 9/05, I've put on over 52k miles. It's had its share of battle scars (1 chip on the windshield, 1 large crack, rock chips on the bumper, hit a deer, ran over a fox, etc). I mainly use it to commute to work and to the store (bubble tea cafe), as well as catering duties. Not many major problems with the car...definitely worth the $. One of my employees and my brother picked up an xB as well. Anyway, enough background..here's the pics.

Here's the car stock..well, it's the most "stock" pictures that I have of the car..already changed the grill badge and added LED taillights.



After 1000 miles, got some 17" rims (for sale btw!! Going to replace with 15's. 6 rims, 4 tires. Email me for more info) and vinyl put on (still have temp plates..hehe)




After a while, had the vinyl changed (around the same time I had the ones made for the AE86). Replaced a couple rims because they were dented, and lowered the car with Tein H-Tech springs.


Here are some "studio pics", courtesy of Kam|photo If you're interested in a session, let me know...he's located in the Bay Area, but I'll have him come out to NJ again soon.




Here's a pic of the AE86...more pics can be found here: http://ectoyotas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=243



If anyone's in the central NJ area, and craving some bubble tea, stop by!

No tofu, just bubble tea. lols.

I wonder how many times people ask about that.

Nonetheless, both cars are looking sweet man.

That's pretty bold...'round here if you tried to advertise a tea shop with a manga-inspired car nobody would get it.

Thanks for the compliments! Yes, that my tea shop...only bad thing with having the graphics is that I have to be very careful how I drive...can't cut anyone off cause they'll just call the store..hehe..j/k I get way more looks in the box than the AE86...most people don't give that car a second glance, unless you're into imports or anime. Working on a AE86 coupe for drifting this season..hopefully it will get some additional coverage.

Mitsuwa's cool..a bit overpriced, but good stuff. Especially the green tea ice cream mochi...yumm....and gotta love the squash air freshners...even though they last only a few days..hehe..
