Default Up and Coming New Scion Magazine Seaking Best Engine Bays

Ok, think your engine bay is the shizzit? Well here’s your chance to step up and prove it. A new upcoming Scion Magazine is in the works and is conducting various articles in which one is all about engine bays, and finding out the top 10 in the country!

To be considered, please post up your best high-resolution pictures of your engine bays to be judged for the top ten chosen. All Scion Models are welcomed and strongly encouraged to apply because we will be selecting two from each category (e.g. xA, 1st Gen xB, tC 2nd Gen xB, and xD). So don’t think one model will be favored over the other, it’s all about equality!

Be sure to pleace your name and city and state.

This contest will be aired for one week, and the winners will be debuted in the premier issue!

So Ready, Set, Go…..!!!

eujin posted already with a comment. Hopefully he will submit an entry. I've heard good things about his ride.

Everything is not finalized threw the copy write agency or the publishing agency just yet. Details are still being worked out please be patient with us in this manner. So we can make sure we dont have any yellow tape stopping this process. But for now we can set the pages and articles up. More info will be updated asap.

Thank you for your time and consideration sincerly Magazine staff.

We are interested in seeing what you guys got. Throw your best at us. If you got a turbo, throw it up, if you are lite up more than a Christmas tree, throw that up!

We're looking for everything and anything. This is your chance to be compared with the big dogs, the Scion's that throw 45k into their rides and get all the cover pages of Import Tuner and HIN.

Time is narrowing down and if you would like to turn in your pictures for the possiblility to be accepted for the Top 10 Engine bays to be featured in a up coming all Scion car magazine. Time is of the essence. Once again you can post up your pictures of your 1st Gen xB, 2nd Gen xB,
tC, xA, xD, engine bays or PM them. Those who are selected will be contacted once the final decision is made. Good luck to all and be advised
you now have till Friday August 8th, 2008 to have your high resolution engine bay pictures posted or Pm'd.

Thank you for your time, consideration and support. Sincerly Magazine staff.

I wash it once a week with Meguairs Gold Car Wash and use Meguairs Quik Detail spray when its got thin dust settling on it.

For that HIN show I used Mothers Clay bar with Meguairs Quik detail spray, and used Mothers Liquid Wax then buffed to a nice smooth shine.

thanks for the compliments guys
