i took care of that and the turnsignals on the mirrors and the foglights all were tinted with Lamin-x

goes to the upholstery shop in a couple weeks to have pillars and headliner wrapped in black suede and new katzkin covers that are black leather and charcoal suede

and im cutting out some vinyl eyelids for the headlights at work this week when i get time and my new cutting needles for the plotter

 

I didn't realize someone asked me question back from September; I didn't even know about until couple minutes ago. Sorry!

Anyway....



Is set at the second hole for more of aggressive response. Which means better handling than the 1st hole. Realistically, that second hole is actually "Street Performance."

While if you went with aftermarket- Like Hotchkis. You'll see three hole setting: Street, Street Performance, Race.

The TRD weighs least 25-30 lbs while OEM is 10-15 lbs.

-----------------

Too bad you're not in Illinois or Wisconsin area; I would offer 750-800 bucks for your TRD wheels.

 

Welcome! your never too late!!!


Post pics of the headliner! but please dont tell me your striping your RS seats to put on katzkins... Buy a set of stock ones to rip up at least!!! Or go Clazzio covers...

 

no way i bought some seats on ebay the RS seats are going in storage in my basement incase i ever have to sell it, i can throw them in and have a complete rs 5.0

 

^^Finally a smart person

 

^^^X2 Thank God!


Some of you guys know that ive been looking for a pair of RS3 TYC Tails. Ive wanted them pretty badly... Enough to consider buying them from the dealership with someone elses vin.. But it would have cost $520.32.. Forget that.. I saw two pairs go over SL for $280 and $240...

Well Wednesday night was the night.. I got my RS3 TYC's, from EBAY!!! Check out these listings that I won.. There is one for each light...

200410731136 <- Left Lamp
190352893505 <- Right Lamp

And to top that, im getting combined shipping for $18.

YAE YEAH!!! OMFG!!! RS5 WITH RS3 TAILS!!! WWWWWOOOOOOTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

to change the swy bar setting, just jack both sides of the car up and unscrew the bolt and then put it in the second hole and tighten nut? sounds a little too simple

 

ITS THAT SIMPLE

 

well than ill have to get on that.lol

 

^^^yes you should, wish it had another setting

 

Welcome to the clan dropzone, any planned mods?

 

#469 of 2000
Bought in Vineland, NJ May of 2009.

Needed a new car, since my '05 4Runner was coming off of lease. Looked around the lot, saw it, test drove it, bought it. - now surprised by looking online of others who were waiting to get theirs.

---scratched one rim day after I go it home, by trying to parallel park. Now I park with 2 feet between me and the curb. ( Think I park to from from the curb? Tough. I usually screw myself worrying about what others think. )

Now the center caps are losing their red color. And even If I have them replaced - who says they won't fade also?

 

My centercap lettering started to crack and had them replaced under warranty at the dealer. When they call you to let you know the caps arrived, make sure to take the wheels off and pop them out from behind the wheel to prevent scratching the wheel. When I had mine swapped out whoever swapped the centercaps they pried from the outside and left some reminders on my wheels.

@SciontC_RS5 : Other planned mods will be revealed as they're done lol. Gotta keep that element of surprise. Just recently installed 6000K HIDs[HIDExtra].

 

The clearcoat on the cap on one of my rims cracked when the dealerships took off the wheel while adjusting a strut (and the red TRD started to disappear) and so I took it back and they fixed it. But I found out they're like $16 if anybody is curious how much they are. But it also took them 3x of ordering it for them to get the correct TRD one in, even with my VIN. Go figure.

 

I know where an unsold one still sits....

 

I just picked one up last night. It will be comming in from louisville ky. Dont know the badge number yet. I traded in my 07 tc for it.

 

^^ Congrats to you guys who just got theirs!!! If your looking for a club to join that is nation wide, check us out on Scikotics.com.. We have a pretty good RS5 thread going, some good convo...


NRG Hood dampers, Meng Motorsports 3k H11 HID, and W.A.K. Door rod retentioners by Butcher (Now Exclusively through Scikotics)... All on the way, and redy for Scion De Gras in Lafayette LA next week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
