When I glanced at the above pictures I could've sworn to God that I was looking at my car, because it looked like the same hood, and I have the same rims.
Then I realized it wasn't because I don't have a 5 Axis lip, and I have some stupid black bumper overlay the previous owner put on the car.
/facepalm.

It's all about stealth. 
Performance-wise, they're on par with a bbk. If they do the job, there's no need for a big, flashy kit. Vince, the guy who did the work, said the tC brakes are surprisingly good for a sub $20k car. Not much was needed to beef 'em up a little.

hmm... i dont know if i would have paid to get someone to buy me hawk pads and some ss lines then have them drill my stock rotors..
and the bbk for the tc is known to be pretty much useless except for the added heat capacity. the electronic brake distribution sort of takes away the impacts that conventional brake tuning used to give..

Just put in my 09 floor mats. Nothing to oooh and aaah at but it's the small things that make a difference. The metal Scion logo and 50% off helped too.
Excuse the lens flare it's bright as hell outside.
