The Radiator/horn/upper support is completely in the way of both the upper and lower grill, so basically we'd have to opt for a duct that enters from the "fog light" area on the sides; which means any RS1 owners would have some problems with this piece; as would any people who wanted a fog set up. It's not such a bad thing thoguh, not everyone with fogs will want this piece, and not everyone who wants this piece will have fogs.

Trade off isn't too bad; it'll be on the list of "to discuss"

Just to keep eveyrthing up to date; I forgot to mention something that was brought up at the focus group;

The piece on our trunk where the rear Scion/Toyota badge is, is removable, and is another option to go with a new CF piece, so let's start gauging interest on that!

I dont think you have to remove the foglights but most likely it would be less efficient.

nd man I had to find out the hard/funny way that the rear piece is removable when my ex keyd that section lmao!

I was very lucky it was only that piece nd got it fixxed for 30bucks lol

but yea a 3 point strut would be very popular

Thanks man! I'll check out whats going on the xA side as well; wellesley has a good idea; but as I mentioned on the scionxdforum.com forums, since our xD's don't have a wide opening like the civics, we can think about having a foglight thats about half the dimension of the opening, and sits in the lower half, so that the Ram Air Duct can fill in the top half.

Just as a note; to keep up on all things PWJDM, sushixfishx...x.x.x.x.x.x dropped his tC off this morning, but there's no update on what exactly is being planned thus far, once we get more news, I'll post it up so we can have an idea of just what PWJDM has planned for our brethren platforms.

maybe they weren't man enough >:O just kidding. I guess that might be out of the question. Pillar Gauge pods however should be fine; and they're universal so its nothing anyone would have to wait for.
