Just got a TC

[iggyiam]

Woot this looks like a decent forum for info so i decided to join. Any suggestions for first mod?

[Soulbane]

Congrats on your purchase, I hope you'll enjoy the car as much as any of us have.

As for your first mod, it depends, what're you interested in most?

Speed, Handling, Show?

Are you a flagrant spender? Are you a budget spender?

Knowing these things will help us better be able to assist you.

i am thinking about borla exhaust but i dont know yet car dosent even have 200 miles on it yet

Congrats on the tC. If your looking for speed go with a cold air intake, some headers or an exhaust. If you got the money get it supercharged or turboed.
If you're more for style get some new rims and tires or maybe a spoiler. You can customize the tC in any way you want so have fun with it.

so many options... like soulbane said tho it's up to your budget and what your goals are.

you could go a few different ways
- intake, headers, exhaust

- springs, sway bars, strut bar

- rims, led's, hid's, tints

congrats on the tC and good luck! ask a lot of questions here! very knowledgable tC owners!

so many different ways to mod it. my first mod was 15% tints then i went from there now i got new matrix racing pedals, s2k antenna, prestige alarm system, OEM spoiler, Blue LED'S parking lights, cubby whole and auto shifter light to blue, blue turning signals, and change to white HID'S looking headlights... Now i ama do some custom work to it like painting my calipers blue and sanding down my rims and painting them black there gonna come out looking like this.

so theres alot of stuff you can do

mite go with the sway bar and strut bar first still thnking thinking of making my own CAI or a true CAI made another thread for this

[iggyiam]

maybe a new tire/wheel combo looking maybe for a gunmetal or a black rim i dont know

[TBITB]

what color tC do you have?

[iggyiam]

that silverish light blue one wave line peral or some gay name

[TBITB]

yea i think that's one of the new colors for 08... i wonder how gunmetal w/ a chrome lip would look on that. coupled with a CF hood maybe...

[iggyiam]

new black grille should be here next week i did not get biller cause they look gay to me... just basic black plastic
04-06 Scion TC ADS Hood Grill - HGTC04ABS

[TBITB]

yea im goin with this one eBay Motors: SCION TC FIG FIGURE CUSTOM GRILL GRILLE 04 05 06 07 08 (item 330218732358 end time Mar-17-08 01:14:27 PDT)

its an upper and lower grill

[iggyiam]

its just the top i dont have a problem with the lower one so i left it stock for now as far as the top i really dislike the circles

[TBITB]

yea that really stood out to me when i first saw it. it looks very fake/cheap IMO. it's like they (and some other car manufactures) were trying to go with an aftermarket look with the grills and tail lights to appeal to the 18-24 demographic

[bdis3]

I like tails but absolutely hate my grille. I would get a new one but have no money cuz i just ordered my S/C IMO i think they should have kept the 05 grille.

[iggyiam]

i mean to me it changed the whole face of the car for 64 bucks lol now question have the head lights and tail lights changed with the years?

[TBITB]

the heads and tails have been the same until 08. im dyin for a set of 08 headlights
