Recommended Posts

Hey guys, just thought id let you fellas know that i recieved my rukus today!, 2012 / Superwhite aka Glacierwhite / Build 3.

I also got the blue interior illumination, Mats and the toyota anti-theft lock nuts.

The cars looks sexy!, the only thing i have done so far is removed the rukus badge on the rear end.

Future mods -

2 hid kits ( 6000k 35w / 1 for the low beams other kit for the fogs ) ( already bought )

Fog lights USDM ( already bought )

White Led lights ( for parkers / interior dome lights / rear number plate / reverse lights ) ( already bought )

Front lip ( already bought )

NIA eyelids ( already bought, still waiting for them )

Ill be buying some 19" wheels for it and also getting it dropped within the next couple weeks, just need to find the right ones..

also thinking about spraying the fog casings and the front grill and the 2 side vent grills white to color code the bar...

That's it for now, ill take pics when i finish with everything i mentioned :).. thanks guys, very pleased with this buy.. car runs real well

looks good mate, just need some lowering ;)

Deffs needs an axing.... Like the colored grill combo never seen it before....

Did you run a separate switch for the fogs or use the standard trd one?

Won't be dropping it just yet, still digging how smooth the ride is lol.. probly within the next year and also a full audio install.. regarding the switch if you mean the oem switch that comes with the fogs well then yes that's what i used.. wont be doing anything else for now apart from the forjworks eyelids, i had the nia eyelids but i dont really like the look of them

Yeah as Chris stated you can order the foglight kit from trd sparks in america, i bought mine from castle hill toyota from sydney, they have a website.. i just bought local because its easy.. but you will probably save abit buying from trd sparks, its the exact same kit, comes with the scion xb installation instructions.. but the only thing is your going to have to make your own wiring harness with a relay.. as for the grill i got sprayed to match the rest of the car.. just for something different and i already had that idea pre-planned..also hid's in the foglights look so sex expecially if you match them with the low beams, just be careful with the globes, i used too much strenght to push and twist one in the back of the foglights and i broke the plastic groove things on the globe so i had to secure the globe in with a metal wire wrapped around the back of the foglight,although i still bought another hid kit..just incase they stop making that brand etc... goodluck bro!
