I traded this in last year, but I did or had done more custom things with this car than any I'd ever owned.
2010 Camaro SS (quite a few modifications 525RWHP/548RWTQ)
Complete modification list:
Cosmetic: Heritage grille, smoked fog light covers, powdercoated calipers, MPD1 spoiler, afterburner taillights, custom painted rear bowtie, removed GM and Camaro lettering, swapped out the chrome taillight surrounds with a matte black finish and tinted windows.
Performance: Comp cam, valve springs, ported heads, Stainless Works long tubes with high flow cats, Roto-fab CAI, Whipple 2.9L Twin Screw Supercharger, Boost/AFR gauges, Borla exhaust, Brake Performance slotted/drilled rotors, Goodridge SS brake lines and Hawks' ceramic pads.
Suspension: Pedders' coilovers, BMR toe rods, trailing arms, rear bushings, tunnel brace and Eibach sway bars.
Audio: JL Audio component speakers for the front, 6x9 for rear and 12" W6 sub powered by JL amps.
Wheels:1st set were 20" TSW Vairano wheels and a year later I dropped down to a lightweight 18"x10" forged set up wrapped in Nitto 555s up front and 555r in the rear.
First day home
First time I swapped wheels
Whipple 2.9L Twin screw blower
Boost & AFR gauges
Custom powdercoated calipers
The way it looked when I traded it in.

I have a 2012 Scion tC Release Series 7.0 #81 out of 2200. Picked it up for 18k and only had 17,200 miles on it. It comes stock with a TRD racing package. Front and side splitters, racing seats, push button start/stop, remote and keyless entry. I've already modified the engine and put a Weapon-R Secret Weapon cold air intake in it, changed the factory taillights out to LED ones. Also changed all the interior lighting out to 6000k white light LED's as well as the licence plate lights too. Also bought some racing petals and some red with blue caps extended tuner lug nuts. Here's some pictures.Very nice Acid what type of Scion do you have?
Nice powder coat btw !
Well wanted to share my updates with my civic. Late last year someone scuffed my rear bumper badly but thankfully I had a nice layer of wax put on the week before so it all Buffed out besides 1 tiny hairline scratch at the bottom bumper. So I decided to plasti dip the rear bumper.It is basically rubber paint that can be removed at any time, I also did the mirrors door handles gas lid and part of my tail lights. I installed underbody lights as well in the middle of winter TERRIBLE idea with no garage.
Jan of this year I had a family loss which really brought me down and in my state I splurged on a Carbon fiber hood. I also got colored H emblems ordered from canada. I have a Bunch of emblems on my car Avengers Xmen Transformers Serenity ect.
In March Honda announced several new makeovers and body styles for 2016 and up starting with all civics will have Turbo engines. So I decided to pause work on the car ...A week or so later a 2010 scion TC caught my attention a the dealer across the street and I had to have it for the price they were offering. Only mods so far is I got rims in for it today.

What kind of rims did you get? That carbon fiber hood looks exactly like the one I want, is that a Carbon Creations or Seibon hood? I'm not really keen on plasti-dip but I like carbon fiber a lot so I'm going to wrap my side mirrors and fuel door and few other little things in that 4D Carbon Fiber vinyl. I also changed my mind at the last minute before I bought the side decals above because there are so many options now I have some tribal graphics in mind for the racing decals.
Are you looking to do a HID conversion on your lights or an entire light replacement?That is AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!! Mine is a 2010 Release Series 6.0 #963 our of 1,100. Mine had 36,900 on it when I got it just under $14k with taxes. I am looking at Headlights and taillights install over the next month because my headlights have very poor visibility they were just buffed out to remove the cloud build up. I will be getting all the windows re-tinted when I am out of state in the fall to match my civic %.
Next thing up tho is I am working on removing the silver trim inside the car and re painting it.
The rims I picked up are 18 inch Drag DR 34'S white with machined lip.
The civic hood I picked up is by Seibon and its sooo sweet . It has gotten me a lot of attention and comments when I am out .
Looking to do both. Will do the housing first for sure and since I will have to take the bumper off I want to do a grill swap as well so if I do that I may wait a few months to do a HID conversion so I can just spread cost out.Are you looking to do a HID conversion on your lights or an entire light replacement?
If your going to install a grill I recommend Grillcraft as they tend to have good quality grills and thorough instruction, I've don't quite a bit of research on them because I want one for mine too.Looking to do both.

Once you do get ready for a HID conversion kit I would recommend this Kensun and the Kensun Relay Harness so as to prevent the flickering that most folks talk about after installation, it's caused by low electrical current and the relay will allow it to maintain a constant rate.
As for a full replacement on the headlights I would try at these places. Fast Scions; Andy's Auto Sport & Carid and if you want quality halos I recommend Oracle of Houston.
