Default Santa comes early to all the good kids :)

Well if you consider Santa the UPS truck like i do. He brought me a gift. Recently i ordered an APR Flex Conrol Bar from George at Scionsport.com.

George was an awesome guy to deal with, and sent me my product in a timely fashion and it looks great.

Review time: The bar adds a M4D TyTe JdM BlInG Yo of like 10, but the bar just isn't about bling! I haven't even got my Teins put on yet, but the stiffness of the front is deffinately felt now. The install was a _____ though, whoever designed the strut area for Scion needs to be shot, it is too small, and you have to pull up on the piece of metal there to be able to remove and install the bolts there.

Anyways without further ado, the pics.......i'm sure that is what you came to see anyways:

Santa Visits me


OOOOHHHH


BLING yo


JDM YO


Bling Bling, that mark was easily removed with a soft cloth, the bar is Aluminum remember


Installed overview


Whoever made this design to Scion needs to be shot (not enough room)


Yes it was raining while i installed this


That is all.

Yes ther is, if there wasn't it wouldn't stay in place......you think i just put those on there for kicks? They are threaded and torqued down, hard

You can't really tell how thick the bar is. I wil take a comparison shot later

That is what i was yelling while instaling this, it takes some push and some force to get in, but it looks baller, and it matches my front emblem.

Next install is OEM CF Wing

Why not bB logo? I think the bB logo looks nice on there. Deffinately gives it more flare

Yah i'm hating, I own a xB so i'm hating on another xB. I could care less what you do but it's not a bB no matter how many bB emblems you put on it.

Nobody said it was a bB. All someone said was they didn't like the bB emblem, you got all ____y and it went from there. Get over yourself.

Anybody else get tired of people saying "why are you 'hating'" when all you are doing is saying that you don't like something?

Hate is a *really* strong word, and I'm really tired of people turning the word into a daily catchphrase.

FWIW, I like the bar, bB logo or not.
