anyone else plan to do something like this?
I second that,
My plans are to do,
TRD Supercharger.
NST Pulley Kit
Brian Crower - Stage 2 Cam's.
Brain Crower - VALVE SPRING/RETAINER KIT.
Weapon-R Intake manifold.
Weapon-R Header W/ S-Pipe.
Would love to do the Brian Crower stroker kit- From 2.4L to 2.6L but feel that will be over kill for a street car and my wallet.

The TRD CF Grill i beleave is the only one of its kind, Im trying to get my stock xb grill done in CF and change all the badges to JDM badges.
One of the guys on the forums has a guy that does CF and look's awsome.
DrewxB08- don't tell me you lived in Queens bro????? and for 25years???? i've been living in Queens for just about my whole life (did a 3year stint in Pennsylvania-hated it-but not prison..haha) -sold the house and came back homesick for NY!! I would've loved to have seen your car in the flesh..I'm about to pull the trigger on a supercharger -according to TRD about 65 left in the US of A-and once gone no more blowers!! I just had the TRD muffler,TYC rear tailights,XM,Sport Sterring wheel and remote starter put on yesterday..I've been finding everything at least 50% off or more from dealer prices..and dealer in Bayridge gave me a fair price to do install!! If you know how I can contact the person(s) who can mod the grille in CF, I would love to reach out to them, although I might look to keep the Scion badge as opposed to the Rumion one. The only reason i haven't bought the SC is cuz I'd hate to buy one now for around $3400 and then price drop w/in a few months to around $2800...Ilove a deal as much as my XB.I fyou're looking for accessories i found a few, and a great one in wisconsin that has some really good prices -although from the looks of ur car -I'm sure you got alot in there already. Sorry for the essay..Vic from OZ -NY

I Def want the TRD charger but dew to hard time's cant shell out $3400 as much as I would love to. I'm sure they can do a better price at this point I mean come on TRD has to sell them some time.

Sweeeeet!!! I never heard of NIA..til now...that's waht happens when u get older-out of the loop!! I'm gotta get some and i will the NIA ones are fair amount cheaper than the ones by forjworks..but both are nice. I on the fence about buying the 5 Axis kit..a set on sale from longo in Cali but i worry that with my ride already low (TRD lowering springs) and the jacked up roads here in NYC , I'll end up scraping,cracking,etc the front lip. But damn the price is not bad..also i'm holding onto my $$ trying to see if the S/C comes down a bit more in price -had spoken with Ken@trdsparks who told me no but there had ben one for $3100 from this dealer in Milwaukee..sold out! Also..have a ? -any tips for the interior..don't know about you but I find the inside of my car getting nicked/scuffed up ever so slowly, any tips? I plan on -fingers x'd- someday having the interior of my car customized..leather seats,heat warmers and have some material put over the interior panels as i find the inside to be cheap quality. I guess that's what u get for under $18,000... Peace...Vic
I spoke to someone in toyota and told me after TRD S/C discontinued stock seemed to disappear immediately out of their system. Said there a fairly decent chance Toyota will discount TRD S/C...i have the $$$ for one but will feel like a big dope if i pay retail and then price drops couple hundred w/in a few months..and in case anyone wants/knows..5 Axis body kit currently on sale..i want one of those 2 but i think pricemight drop from current amount of $955. If anyone has both or either one of those and for a fair price pm me. Later.....Scychotic 4 Life!!!

Im sure there def going to let it go down a decent price, Def give it little time andm bam def should get a sweet deal on the charger.
Five-Axis on sale????? Where def the best price i have hered of so fair? Do share my good man!! not that i can affored it but def but love seeing good deals.
Hey any pic's of your ride up, def love to check it out.
Yo Drew...Five Axis on sale from Longo Toyota-Scion in Cali..free shipping too.. i was gonaa buy it but i got a feeling that the body kits might go down a bit more..maybe bottom out between $700-$850..and being that i want the S/C and they are discontinued..I'll wait. Just ordered a shark fin antenna from a company called Garage visual-i'm sure you've probably heard of them. had been wanting one and now was the time. See that you list leather interior in ur ride -delaer installed aftermkt or what??Is it custom job or a kit like Clazzio or 5 Axis? i definitely want leather in my ride but want something that won't crack or fade..which happened w/my BMX 328 some yrs back..but was great in my last car-a Volkswagen Passat -go figure. Also want to add heated seats since it's getss mad cold up here in NY as u know. I'm also looking for big brake kits for the front 7& rear..only company i found that makes both is K-Sport, but i'm not crazy about the slotted only rotors and choice of caliper colors (black or orange). If TRD had a front and back BBK I would buy it..i think the front only look will appear kinda weak..so where I was going to buy from TRD i decided not to....maybe Brembo will come out with something or Stoptech. Give a shout...when u can
