Talk to Coi (fluxmr2spyder) of Motor FX / Fiber FX. His hoods look great and the fit is amazing. I took the best xA trophy and another PNW SE member / xA owner took 2nd overall at the Seattle owners event this year, both sporting FiberFX hoods.

You can see an example in the Motor FX post at https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=70800 . And you can see more pix of my car at http://www.teamscifi.com .

Thanks, Coi.

Here's an updated pic with the splitter finally installed. Props to Mr. Nish for the splitter and canards.

Tight weave, rolled edged and good fitment. FiberFX hoods are top quality!

The FibreFX cf hood for the xA is nice, and so is the bBist cf hood.

I have the bBist hood on my xB, and will have the same when I get my xA.

I'm trying to be like Coi.

Thanks, man! The car will look even better with the CF spoiler you're gonna hook me up with

As for the kenstyle, I'm as low as I can go because of the road rallies...all it would take is one wrong acute left to rip a kenstyle bumper to shreds. Thanks for the thought, though :D

Peace
