heres some pic of my friends ride in automotive class


just been bored, so decide to take a pic




ok first of all i joined scionlife in oct of 2006, then once i got use of looking up ppls threads about there build ups and so fort, i got interested of making one too, since im from Maui, Hawaii i just wanna share some pics or i mean alot of pics of my build ups ive been doin on my car soo far............. so here we go lol


i bought the car on July 2007 as a graduation gift

then my very first mod was the rs1 front lip,s2k antenna and a window tints in 08


once the lip was installed, i took a pic of it the next day with a better camera lol



then in March 09 i got my new wheels for her Enkei evo5 , then on april got my APT fog light " sorry didnt had any pic when i got it",


Then on May 2011 since my old tire is running out of treads, i bought some new tires frm tirerack and bought the kumho ecsta tires "nothing to fency about how great tires are since my car is daily driver"

once got my new tire installed took some pics


Then on May 2011 i FINALLY save up some budget to spend on some coilover and got my Buddy club N+ coilover kit



Then got them installed "sorry this was only the rear pic i took of the coilover" lol and i think i was set to 1.5 inch drop f/r


some Motorola atrix pic of my fone on july 11' and thats how she sits now with the coilovers





Since school is almost coming up, decide to take some pics of it before ill get busy again











And here are couple mods i forgot to list, a Kenwood ddx516
custom seat covers made by wet okole
led dome lights, and many more to come.............


And that day i got pulled over for a dark tints and no front license plate so here a pic where i mounted my front plate, i had to bend it and zip tie to the grill since i dnt like drilling my bumper

Good job racing on public roads!

Mauipinoyracer

yeah i really wanna try go lower but the thing is our road here are sucks, so many pot holes and speed bumps

Mauipinoyracer

thanks, its also a water proof seat cover

you should never bend a license plate. take some tin snips and cut that ish to fit bro! license plates don't need to be a certain size, if you have to cut it down they don't care. unzip tie that and cut to fit, it'll look much cleaner.

But officer someone on the internet said cutting my license plate was fine to do!

criminaltc

It is fine to do. There should be one or two halographic circles, don't cut those, but you shouldn't have to in order to fit in in the grill. It's fine Hayseed, trust me. I know that you shouldn't just do something like that because someone on the internet says its okay, I get that. so ask someone, you'll see its fine. the front plate doesn't mean ish anyways, so they could care less.

These are the moments where SL needs a like button.

criminaltc

you guys are being ignorant. you literally have no idea what youre talking about. you CAN cut your license plate, so "like button" that!

Speaks the truth ^ there is nothing that says you cannot do it. None of my buddies who have done it have ran into problem with the po po

Thanks for lookin out Irishguy. I ran a cut plate (cut the top and bottom) for three years in a cop filled town... nothing. Relocating is cool, but if you gotta cut it, ya gotta cut it, you want it in the grill, cut it to fit the grill, that's all i'm saying.

Aspekt

nicely done, i always like the panda look.

as for the front plate, i live on same street 2 block away from police station, never had a problem with front modified plate. but thats my experience.

i know in Cali, its required to have both front and back plate, and in some state if it only requires the back, it wont matter what you do to the front... I have also heard from an officer that in Cali, it wont matter what you do to the front as long as all the character are showing, but the back one can not be tempered with.

criminaltc

You gettin' that Hayseed and dhj517? Not sure why you feel the need for your negative input when you have no idea what you are talking about. I'm all game for being negative on here sometimes, but only if you belong on that thread because you know what you are talking about. In this instance, that is not you guys, sorry.

Mauipinoyracer

yeah i was planing to get it, but the guy didnt reply my post yet, so im waiting for it, how would it be to ship on hawaii.

Congrats on making a VERY clean car! Put some swaybars on it and you will be amazed how well it can handle.
