Looks pretty good! I would consider spacing the wheels out a bit to achieve perfect flushness...

Thanks all...I deff plan on working on flushness. I plan on running 15mm spacers up front and 25mm on the rear. I just have to get diff tires first. Wheels are 18x8.5 with 225/40s on now. I need to stretch 205/40s so the tires clear the fenders when I air out. The front also currently sits on the fender liners so I need to cut those too. And roll the rear

ive debated removing it many times believe me. its hard because it has meaning though. it was made and sold for donations when a girl from the scion scene developed cancer and was dropped by her insurance. many scion owners rock it for its true meaning although many made copies just because they liked it. i had a few of them on the car and removed all but that one. i may carefully remove it and put it on my air tank if possible.


thank you all for the kind words as i pretty much expected to get crapped on for having an xb lol.

I like what I see. It has it's own style.

Wheels, black accents look good.

Nice drive height too
