Picture Request!!
Ok..Long story short...please please don't ask. BSP btw.
I get to pimp the xB...for free. Well not technically for free but damn near close. About a $5k limit. My father knows the guy who works at a local body shop ( one of the nicest in the KC area) and they will be doing all the work.
1.) Wheels
2.) Body kit
3.) Suspension (oh god, if I could get air-ride)
4.) Tint
So!
I found this picture. I love these wheels, does anyone know what they are called?
Next, lip/"body kit" I like the 5-axis kit but I'm still not sure on that. I have seen the AIT Racing kit but it doesn't seem like its on their website. http://www.aitracing.com/shop/ and this site http://www.scionscene.net/xB2_Body_Kits.html
I would probably go with the Tanabe NF210 or if I could convince my father to do air-ride. Does anyone have a picture of a BSP on this drop? Preferably with tint.
Tint, looking for factory look. 20% all the way around?

Congrats.
The rims look like the Axis Shine. http://axiswheels.com/wheels.php?id=shine
20% Tint sounds right. I got a 35% do it yourself tint off of ebay for $17 and it looks pretty close.
I suggest a Webasto tvs 900 sunroof also. I just had mine installed and it's nice. You can always go with a Rumion JDM conversion if your looking to be one of the first. Have fun.

Tint wise 30% is the closest match. My rear meter at 27% and putting 30% film on the slight factory tint is a VERY close match. 20% is darker than back unless you slap some tint of the top of that too. Here is a pic of mine but not it is 30% front 2 windows and 10% over factory on back, with 50% entire front windshield.
America's Tire hooked me up with these 18s with good tires for 1300 bucks. Then Tanabe DF210's, vinyl wrap the front, two DVD screens, stealth sub, and alarm...those are the biggest mods. Mine is the coolest around, so you can mimic it

Sex! Lol.
I will prolly steal a few ideas but thank you.
Also, how did you get your front plate in the grill like that? I really don't want to drill the holes in the bumper and put that tacky ____ing thing the stealership gave me.

1. we modify cars, not pimp them.
2. get others opinions on what you like/want rather than asking others what you should do. BE UNIQUE/CREATIVE!!!!!.
3. this is a car that you'll be seeing more than any of us.
search online for wheels. if you like'em, buy'em.
if you like the Gangster body kit, get it.
NF, DF, KSports, TRD.... get what'll work for your you. If this is something you frequently take off-roading, dont slam it.
4. think of where you wanna go with the xB (JDM, VIP, OEM, etc..). If its VIP-style you'd probably be able to get a set of wheels for 5k and thats it, haha
but here's my input either way:
wheels- personally i love gold wheels and i like a supermesh design. a gold supermesh wheel is perfect in my eyes but only if its the right shade of gold. this depends on the color of the car.
body kit- 5axis or bomex (every time i see it i like it that much more). both are very clean kits. I'm not a fan of agressive kits. i like to keep it simple and clean
suspension- ksport coils
tint- if you dont worry much about cops i'd go with 20% and 50% windshield

Whispaz, I love those VW commercials... 
I don't care what you young guys say... I always refer to my car being "pimped" out. It's classic to me. My bimmer is modified and tuned... but my XB, now that $hit is peeempd out sucka!
My next mod is going to be LED gauges and puddle light kit... Even Too Short would say that's peeeemped! haha.
