Default New to Forum, First Advice ask



Ok. Here is my 08 Tc RS 4.0 and i have a few questions of advice to call upon:

Car did not have fog lights: so if i were to get them installed would the car no longer be of the "limited edition" set if i mod it? (i use the term mod loosely here)
And speaking of fog lights, should i have Toyota install them or are they basically idiot proof and can get them anywhere.

Spoilers: Interested in a spoiler. Most likely the pedestal spoiler which scion.com says is about $430 (trying to keep it fairly normal looking. not too over the top). Same questions as the fog lights apply. "Limited edition" and the install.

[url=http://www.scion.com/#tCAccessories_exterior_pedestalSpoiler]Pedestal Spoiler Link[/media]

Intake: Also thinking about a new intake. Been looking around and have found a thousand different ones. Not sure if i should get cold air or what.

Open to any and all suggestions. Thanks in advance!

weapon r sri is getting a lot of great reviews especially around here.

as far as ur concern of the "limited edition" it doesnt matter if you do what you want to it. it's limited edition cuz it's your car, your ideas, your mods. i'll comment more later - got a busy day ahead.

look around the threads and sections and ask questions. we'll help you anyway we can.

Limited Edition is what you make it. Your cal will always be limited because they only make 2000 of them. But out of those 2000 I would try and make mine original. But check the forum for ideas, and ask questions.

At the end of the day you will still have that badge on the inside saying your car is XXXX out of 2,000, but like everyone else is saying keep it original and try to keep it clean. Good luck!

yea to piggyback on what they said, do what makes you happy. one guy here is talking about putting 2 sets of fogs on his car, a couple people are trying to squeeze 300whp out of the s/c, others don't seem to know when to stop upping the boost on their turbos, I wanna go with a completely original paint job...

almost anything will work - mild or wild. just imagine it, research it, and do it.

(that's the rest of my post from eariler)
