    That's my plan! Or maybe I just stole it from you :rolleyes:

    I forgot about the TC, drove my friends the other day and it's a quick little thing. Made me want one because it has so much acceleration compared to my truck haha

    Head unit. That's it.
    I would have liked to have seen Scion put out a vicious TC with boost and proper suspension, and maybe AWD. Would have been a cool car.

    AWD is the key here, without that it's a boring FWD car even with boost. Just look at the Pontiac Redline, all it needed for success was AWD or RWD.

    It looks pretty cool too with the red pads through the rims.

    I'm not sure I would PC running gear. PC is just a thin coating of hopes and wishes that tends to flake off a bit easily. But a bit of high temp matte paint would probably last well with some high temp clear coat too.

    Question???..if you get your frame replaced from the recall and have aftermarket bumper or sliders burned on. What's your options? Will the dealer cut them off or reinstall them? Or is that the owners responsibility?

    Well I know a guy who is having his frame replaced and has sliders welded on and says his front bumper is welded to the frame....I have not seen the truck with my own eyes though.

    I highly doubt Toyota will put them back on for you, but if you ask nicely they'll probably liberate them from the frame.
