Default My Urban Assault Vehicle from NJ

Hello everyone, I'm somewhat new here, got my 2010 XB in April joined scionlife not too long after that. I'm 19 student in New Jersey. And no my parents didnt buy any of this. Ive been working my whole life so when i graduated i bough a new car myself, and unfortunately have a huge insurance bill every month as well. so right now mods are coming, but slowly because of my college tuition costs too :/

Here's the driver,


And here's the ride...

I cant seem to find my stock pictures of when i first brought her home, these are the only early pics i have. about a week after i got the car I dropped it, badge-less grill, weathertec visors, painted hubs(no money for rims lol) roof rack and shark fin. Oh, and taillights and sidemarkers tinted.
the mods from the factory i got are foglights, door sill illumination, and bluetooth




This is my friend Dan's Tc, some of you probaly have seen it on the forum, his name is Huslindan. Hes the one that got me into modding and scions.

So when he told he decided to sell his rims, I figured I'd pick them up lol

Installed them that very same day



Just finishing laying a Rogue Status overlay on the fairing of my roof rack.

Also got the tsudo dual exhaust sitting in my garage, but its just too damn cold outside.

And heres how the urban assault vehicle is sitting today. MANY more mods to come as well as a little bit more rogue status vinyl, its just tough to mod in the cold and the snow ya know, haha

Coming along nicely. You forgot to mention the fog lights and vent visors.

Welcome to the family.

Looks like the wheels are cross-drilled, the wheels can fit both 5x100 and 5x114.3.

The wheels are TenzoR Passion 5's size 18. I'm almost positive they're discontinued. Really a great rim, very smooth ride when combine with my tein htechs

I want a Yakima roof rack, too, for complimenting the xB!

But... I'd figured I wouldn't use it, so instead, I'll apply that money toward getting my roof slashed opened and having a sun roof put in.

EDIT: Nice-looking xB so far! If you're going rouge status with the vinyl, don't go overboard on the interior. BTW, what do you have planned for the interior so far?

how do you like those weathertec visors?

i was looking at them too, but the dark didn't seem very dark compared to the other brands.

EDIT: also, where did you get your Yakima rack? I was looking on their site and they only suggest the hatch rack and clearly, I don't want that since the roof rack looks sweet.

@Mikey_Boy: Those door inserts will look sick! Can't wait to see that

@imfromwisconsin: You can get the Yakima roof rack at the Yakima Web site. I'd post a link, but you have to go through the FLASH browser available on their site. Back when I was interested in it, I was using that browser to find it because I wanted the copperhead deal, but the quote (with all the options) ran me around $500, so I said no way.

the weathertech visors are pretty dark imo. just be sure to order the dark tinted one. I think it perfectly matches the factory tint.

as for the roof rack, I got mine from http://www.sunandski.com/ . the rack plus the fairing was like $299. pretty good if you ask me. and if your going to get it, DON'T skimp out and not get the fairing. without it theres a high pitch whine when the wind travels through your roof rack, plus, I think it just makes it look that much better
