ummmmm, the xR kinda reminds me of guys who put Type R stickers on their cars to make them look cool! That and the bright red interior parts look kinda ricey to me, but everything else is nice.

its nothing like putting the type R stickers on the car its all about difference and thats what makes scions the best ... mod them out .... its to represent the xA RS2.0 .... not for racing or anything .... its weird you guys just don't understand .... you will all change your mind once its done ....

no, i understand why you did it... i just stated my opinion on it and how others may look at it.
i then said it looked nice otherwise.
dont get worked up, it wasnt meant to on my part.
