No, you stay in front of me from now on!

Well now I have to wait until tomorrow (8/10) to get my box.
Joe had to go to the doctor, and Dauphin had no idea what was going on, becasue there weren't any notes about my options on the thing!
Oh well, I got it straightened out though!

I like your new ride but you should get rid of the dealer logo on the back door. Peel that bad boy off there while it's still fresh. JM2¢
That's not even the dealership where Im getting mine, but the dealer where it was sourced! That's definatly coming off! I already told them that I'll just take the standard "sandy springs toyota" license plate frame-- which will go on the front when I find that JDM tag relocater thing on ebay (we dont get a front plate here in GA, and I have an authentic japanese plate from Japan from my car over there Im putting on the front)
Check you out... Sounds like you have had a Scion or even a Toyota bB before? You definitely don't sound like a noob. Congrats on your new ride! Have fun!

Hey Prototype xB, Happy birthday!!!!

...well I did drive a bB when I was lucky enough to snag one from the company motor pool when I was working in Japan. My neighbor across the street had one too that he went totally VIP-style on. That's what led to me getting one here in the states.

Congrats! Camo is my fav color besides Hot Lava. I can't believe they're getting rid of it

Looking forward to see it...

OK, so Im still rollin in the white camry demo, because the tint guy postponed, and my tires are rubbin front wheel wells when I turn (why didnt they notice that when they put them on? ) But check out these pix!


got the fogs, and rims on... but the sumitomos are 40s. I need 35s, so they rub now. Oh well. The tint will make it look dope though.


told ya that dealer logo would be offa there!


These gunmetal ICWs go so well on a camo xB, dontcha think?

get thinner tires. These are 40 series Sumitomo tires wrapped around 18" ICWs... they rub. Get 35s and you'll be OK.

Use this thread as a guideline: https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=348
With 35 series tires you should be fine...

UPDATE>> finally got the rightsized tires (35s) and drove it off the lot last nite. Im going back up there in an hour to get my tint done, and then thats it! Finally the saga is over. Thanx to Sandy Springs Scion for really going the distance to make sure I got what I wanted without making me settle for less. See my dealer review for info. And thanks to all you Scion Lifers and Scinergy members who gave me all the information I needed to make my descisions as to what to put on at the dealer. I'll take more pix later to show off the finished deal. (but we all know its never really finished, isnt it...)
