Default Scion tC touring body kit

I just bought the front bumper of the Touring body kit for the scion tC and I wanted to see what it looks like finished on some cars.

It's being worked on right now, and it should be done on Saturday. I've seen enough pictures online, but only a few of which were finished products, and even those pictures weren't that great of quality.

I know i will be happy with it, but i just wanted to see some people's ride with the front bumper finished. Some good quality pics, and if anyone has a flint mica tC with it, i'd love to see it.

I know there was already a post like this, but that was a while ago and i wanted to see if anyone else has the bumper/kit on.

Thanks!

right now i have 18" rims, and i have the stock suspension... so no worries about scrubbing right now. Later on, I'm going to get a really firm suspension so it doesn't get that lip scratched too much. I've had the buddly club 2 kit on my car for a long time now, and i know how body kits can get messed up pretty easily. One thing that's good is this is the urethane body kit and it wont crack, the paint will prob chip if i hit a curb, drive way, bump, speed bump, ect... but not as bad.

and it should be as the same size (in height anwyays) as my prior front bumper, and be just the same amount of height off the ground.

Yeah i can put a pic up of what it looks like

and yeah i LOVE the obsidian body kit.. but it's a wide body kit and i don't have the extra money for the fenders. And i don't want to get spacers, so the wheels would look retarded. And getting the right tire sizes so it looks ok would take $$$$$ and would drag my performance unless i was turbo'ed.

but here is what it looks like

yes, as a matter of fact i did look through that thread. They don't even have any touring kits at all, those were all obsidian and raven kits. A few other body kits were thrown in as well. Plus I'm not looking for the wide body variants.

There was even a thread that was specifically for the touring kit I am looking for, and there were some crummy pictures in there that were fine, but all of them weird colors.

I wanted to see if there were any more people who got this kit and if they got it in Flint mica. Or any other standard color for the tC's.

That's all.

hmm..google search perhaps? A lot of guys with bodykits tend to get custom paint jobs. Personally the only kit i've ever liked was the kami but thats just the front and sides..i hate the rear..

anyway..gl with the search

haha it's alright, the site is acting kind of slow everynow and then, so i clicked the post reply button 3 times and then it finally went through. But it left 3 posts...

anyways, yea not everyone likes the kit. I didn't like it at first, then it grew on me. I like being a little different anyways. We'll see how it plays out. I can't stand any of the lip kits.

and stock is a no no for me.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder no?
