Default my 2010 SW xb

just thought i would share some pics of my xb.

the day after i came home with it


came with leather thanks to the dealership


first "mods" were some DDM HID, LED reverse/license plate lights and the bumper overlay


then i blacked out the headlights and grill


as she sits now lowered with some tanabe nf210s


just got the springs installed and already i'm itching to go lower.
its been a fun 6 months so far with the car.

I like it so far. So how did you black out the headlights? Is that the cook it in the oven to seperate them technique?

I am also on NF210's, what size tires are those? (ok CIONIDE, this is where you jump in).....

thank you. it is black leather, white garage reflecting the sun + me not really wanting to mess with the settings on my cam= gray looking leather. if you look at the door panels they look gray also....just the lighting and my camera though.

Hehe, I thought you had a lighter gray interior than mine. (I don't know what all they've made.)I like that leather and have not seen seats like that before. I wonder who makes it?

Yes I'm sure that's correct. Generally though the leather covers are pre-made by someone rather than being custom made by the upholstery shop, and I am curious who made those as I like them better than others I've seen.

ohh , didnt know the seat covers were all pre made then just applied. that black strip that looks darker than the rest of the seat is a carbon fiber pattern if that helps to narrow down the selection.

Reading through some older threads here, I found another car with leather seats that look almost the same: https://www.scionlife.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=101609

The only difference I notice is the section with the carbon fiber pattern looks a bit wider and flatter.
