Default Password JDM - Big things happening

Just hit up the focus group today, and I'm really looking forward to the next couple months, seems like product development is going to be quick and tasteful.

They have a full machine shop in warehouse, all design is in house, making 100% dry carbon pieces, its great, and the pricing on their parts are amazing.

Anyway, no full word on what exactly is being developed, that'll come soon, but shift ***** are for sure, tow hooks are being looked into, license plate relocation kits, Dry Carbon accessories galore, Intake system, possibly more. I'm really excited to see where they go with all this and hopefully can keep everyone on SL updated.

I urge you all to throw out suggestions, what parts do you want to see for the xD?

tC, xB I/II yes, parts are planned for all platforms; not too sure about the xA yet. They're all great guys; they definitely know their stuff, and treat you with nothing but absolute respect. Scions going to be seeing some great parts

Rear Tow Hook, alternate lip kit, carbon waterfall for interior, carbon spoiler would be top of my lists

Rear tow hooks are definitely in the works, they said they would work on that for sure, front tow hooks as well as soon as they can figure out a mounting location. Lip kit was on my list too.

Carbon waterfall definitely sounds good, would you be interested in matching CF shifter ring (w/e you call the piece that holds down our boots) and window control pieces as well? To keep things matching. We can definitely pass along the idea.

That's definitely something to ask about too. Let's try and gauge some interest in the headlight ideas? What were you thinking xDA51? the iSt has the "smoked chrome" ones that are basically completely cleared out, I personally think those look great.

I love the iSt headlights....just looked up the EK9 ones as well and they look nice! I'd go for something like this.

Projectors would probably be too expensive and I guess another alternative would be to bake my current ones, remove the amber, and color the outer chrome black but I'm too scared to try it

yeah to be honest I'd rather keep my ambers than risk screwing up my own headlights. I don't want moisture in em. :shrug: oh well haha keep the ideas coming!

Their 3 point strut bars are legendary and Carbon Fiber Chamber intakes are awesome too! I always had great service from them back when I had my Integra.

continued to the shifter would be great TRD, including an option of gauges to be put in it also ;)
nst makes a front tow hook. only problem is it rubs against the bumper because it was originally desiged for the Yaris.
Headlights i would have no interest in unless they had projectors.
a 3 point strut bar and cf intake would sound delicious also

There was a post a couple days ago regarding a small talk to with PasswordJDM and local forum users who own Scions for future development for the Scion brand. TRDxD was abviously able to attend this meeting.

correct! the guys over at PWJDM will be checking in on this thread to see exactly what people want. They're serious about jumping into the scion crowd so rest assured if you make a suggestion, it wont go unnoticed. (may not be chosen but they will know you suggested it.)
