hi Chris, i couldn't agree more & asking myself why didn't i think of that Yes i would so love to have on my Rukus Halo number plate surround & hoping they would come in arrange of Colors so that they could suit our beloved Cars. at the moment i am having bright pink on my number plate surround it is for the cause of Breast Cancer purchased them from Auto Barn, if i was to get TOCAU number plate surround it would have to be Pink also as my number plate is Purple the Star sign Personalized Plates. Thank You for bringing this Subject on Board hope there will be a few more who would love to get one & not to mention advertising the web site I Love it.!!!!

i just ordered a set of Scion Xb mudflaps for my Toyota Rukus halo which is 2011 model here in Australia. on E-Bay of Course ;) which are long time over due as my Rukus Halo is now nearing 3 Years next year in April & i should have had them on long time before this but i guess is better late than never right if you are wishing to buy Scion Xb parts on E-Bay make sure you send the Seller a brief message just let him know the make & model of your Car & he will get back to you. the Scion Xb mudflaps will definitely fit my Rukus & not to mention looking forward in having them on as i will have a part of a Scion on my Baby which is extra Special to me as i so Love the Scion Xb & wish more People here in Australia would be so much more accepting of the Rukus & not think that we are nutters. hey i know i am little late with this Subject well 2 Years not bad like i said is better to be late than never right :D who knows maybe i won't stop just at the mud flaps always looking for other idea's to make my Baby Special not that it isn't already Special ;) Thanks & hope my message helped not that you haven't been looked after that i can see already well i am just a little late sorry about that. hope you find what you are looking for...

OMG that is Heart Wrenching to say the least. who would be so Evil to key any one's door, but nothing shocks me these days as i seem to find myself losing a Battle trying to keep my Halo Scratch free. i not go to the movies all the time but when i do i try to park it up the top where the Cinema's are & park right in front of the front Doors leading into the Cinema. that way your Car is in full View not to mention i have my Camera Recording ;) people today are so God damn Jealous that they will do just about anything & everything to make you suffer. to me these are Heartless Poor excuses for a Human Being & when my favorite Wheel Caps get stolen that just sets me off as i mean they are only wheel caps but think they want to take much more. You see i am having Painted Mags & think they wanted to take them but found out they can't be taken you need an allen Key & not to mention they are tightly screwed on. so i do feel for you & your G'F & maybe next time you can park it where is going to be in full view of people, but then you only have a Yaris WTF ;) I can't really pin point who did it. 1.could be kids that hang around the movies 2.low life people That day it was packed so I had to park it outside where the shopping carpark was.+ 1 on jealous people but I guess there not much you can do unless you end up finding who did it. What kind of camera do you have in the car? Might invest in some. On a good note lucky I'm a spray painter so I will be preparing everything at home and use my work booth for the final touch. Only a yaris but that day I was lazy to drive manual so my sportivo didn't come out or else bye bye sportivo. Sadly without a Video Surveillance Camera you are Screwed, Yes Kids will do just about anything & everything these days & especially things that not belong to them. think no 2 you got that right as that is exactly who they are & it's also my saying. Yes there are many Low life's out there who are so God Damn Jealous that it gets me so Cross knowing good every day hard working People are having their Pride & Joys Scratched & what ever else. OMG you are a Spray Painter well than that would definitely come in handy as i can only imagine just how much that would have Cost. i only go to one Spray Painter here in Cairns as they also deal with Toyota & not to mention they do me a deal Sorry about my last Comment i was Only Joking when it comes to any one's Cars being Vandalized i feel the Pain & know exactly what you are feeling even though is only a scratch. Thank God The Sportive Stayed at home or else they would have had a Party even though there are many Security Camera's out there, there is only 1 that i find will do the Job & Keep your Baby safe. now before i forget here is everything you need to know if you are wishing to have that Camera i wouldn't be without it Dual Camera HD 720P Vehicle DVR Dual 180° Left-Right Rotatable 120° Ultra Wide Angle Lens 2.7" TFT LCD Screen + SOS Button IR Remote Control + HDMI & AV Out Motion Detection & Cycle Recording One button for night/day mode switching Ebay When the Engine Start the Camera will turn on Automatically that's if you are having it plugged into the outlet or cigarette lighter place. Sorry for the colored writing i copied & pasted the details up above & now is going a little crazy also with my Halo i had to have the battery wired up so that my Camera will switch on even if the car is not running but you must have the Battery rewired to be able to do that. as i work job of an evening i was finding that the Camera's Battery Life was not lasting the 4 hours or more & now i am all set to go my Camera is always ready no need to Charge. with this type of Camera also many sellers are selling it on E-bay & they are all different prices you will have to take a look so that you can see which one will be the Cheapest. Good Luck hope you get that Camera you won't regret it.

Hi Shane, Welcome to the Best Car Club in Town ;) Congratulations on Picking up your Rukus hope your Rukus Brings you a lot of Happy Driving & one word of warning don't feel ashamed if People call the Rukus names, believe me i have heard every name under the sun & now i am quite used to it & i not let it bother me. i own a Rukus Halo which is 2011 model which i am sure you are well aware :D i was one of the lucky ones to have driven my Halo straight from the Toyota Showroom & because i was so much Nervous i didn't get to see how many K's were on the Clock not that it mattered. if i wasn't owning a Halo i would have Picked the Furnace Color as i have seen it up close & love the many Sparkles it has in the paint work. my Sign writer who did my Halo sticker on the back Bumper was also Owning a Halo here in Cairns but come 7 days short of 1 year old he had an Accident which wasn't his fault & sadly his Halo was written off & now he is also having the same Rukus Model as You the Beautiful Burgundy. sadly i couldn't afford to put 18's on my Halo still keeping the 16's with Painted Purple wheel inserts which look quite amazing now that i have had them newly repainted also my Mirror's & Spoiler freshly repainted. i am sure you will not Stop at doing your modifications as i seem to be going & going ;) when will it end hmmm. Yeah you don't want to go too low hahaha. i am here also if there is anything you would like to know even though i am still learning myself i too Love E-bay there is so much that you can get for your Rukus & i just ordered 4 set of Scion xB Mud Flaps from a guy in the States, if you are wishing to buy mudflaps send me a pm & i will send you the link as the guy knows me & looked after me & i am sure he will look after you too just tell him you know me ;) even though my Halo is nearly 3 years old in April next Year i have found that driving on the road & not having mudflaps has many times Splattered mud, black tar, & all the other Sh*t & it drives me Crazy but then again i am having a lighter Color than you. OK that's it from me hope to see you on here a little more. Hope you Enjoy your Rukus, we are the Chosen few to Drive this Magnificent Beast

hahaha you made me laugh i never heard any one call it a Commonwhore ;) i am guessing she was a Pensioner, i clearly remember when i had my Commonwhore ;) when i was still sitting in the car at the time & these pensioners walked past & to my horror made the Mirror flick back if only i didn't have the window up but i did bang on the window so they knew i was still in there. this is what gets me really fired up listening to these stories & know exactly what you are talking about. as i see people all the time trying to Squeeze there way through cars & wonder why they are doing that & not walking some where else where it is more room. when i park at the shopping center i always park it near a Concrete pillar also i reverse it in every time that way i can drive it out & not to mention my camera is recording lucky for me i am a good reverse driver had plenty of practice ;) Thank God there are People out there like You who will do the right thing & not let these low life's get away with it, they need to pay up that is the only way you are going to stop them. i too Hope she Gets whats's coming to her Keep up the Good work :D

Just like everything these days collecting dust woww if only they had put this in my Halo maybe i wouldn't need to look at another ;) but i am always on the look out just about anything & everything especially when it comes to my Halo hmmm well what else do i spend the money on. looking forward sometime in October to get my 8' Alpine Head unit with sat nav if only it didn't cost so much. looking on E-bay i didn't realize there were so many head units & think they have come down in Price. i hope you get someone to start the bid just wondering do you have it on Sale on any other site ~ " Gum Tree.?? i am always looking on there & i am not ashamed to admit i have bought some great things ;) my last thing i bought on Gum Tree was a Timber CD Tower for 25 Bucks it holds 126 CD's & is in good Condition. & the best part i love is when i go to Pick up from the Sellers House & proudly Drive up their Drive way in my Halo & that's when they start asking what type of Car is this ;) never in a million Years would i trade my Halo in for a Commodore. Wish you the Best of Luck in Selling it & hope you get a good Price Looks amazing ;)

Oh Woww Your Baby is out of this World Thank You so much for Sharing & i Welcome you to the Club Personally, hope you can share in all your Pics & Stories would love to hear about them as i am how shall i put it a Scion XB fan, you made me laugh calling it your " Baby " as i too call my Rukus Halo my Baby ;) i have never heard some one call a Scion XB a Rukus well if we both think about it they are the same Car & we are all apart of one big happy Family :D sadly where i am living my Rukus Halo i mean my Baby is a target & even though my Rukus is only 2 years old it has been the toughest 2 years i have ever had owning a Car. i am so wishing to get more done but must wait until end of October before i spend any more money. what i am so wishing to have on my Rukus Halo is a Visor that is selling on the Scion XB Website as i think would look pretty amazing & i would also paint it Purple to match my mirrors & Spoiler. i am some one who like to be different if you haven't already figured that out. & i can see you too are just like me. in October i am having some much needed striping & carbon fibre on all the window frames which i am looking so forward too & know will make my Car look a million Dollars not that it doesn't already ;) also in October i am splashing out hmmm i seem to do that when it comes to my Baby ;) getting the whole works 8' Alpine custom made fibre glass frame for front & back for the sub woofer also painted same color purple & thinking of some other cool stuff for the inside, i not wish to go over board but slowly my Rukus Halo is becoming into something truly Special. as i not have no Mud flaps for my Halo as they didn't make any for what ever reason that was, i have already contacted somebody from Ebay about the Scion XB mudflaps & hoping to get them on before i Leave in October, let me know your thoughts on the Mudflaps as i haven't ordered any just Yet :D if you have any ideas would love to hear about them as i too have only just returned here after many Months away hmmm where was i ;) i made a Video after i transformed my Rukus Halo but will make another when everything is finished can't wait for that one. now sit Back & Check out my " The Making of a Rukus " my Toyota Rukus Halo has made me make all my Dreams Come True

when a guy gets out of his Car & he is behind you saying you hit me you know you have a really nice car ;)

Yes i too would be a little worried about the adhesive but as i had said prior is really only a short term fix, also i forgot to mention the stickers come in a range of colors so that you can have the exact color for your Car. lead to rust.?? ahemm i would think so as you have already damage under neath the sticker & to Just Cover it up & hope it will just disappear is mixing with your head if you want my honest opinion when it comes to Scratches there is no quick fix, i have a motto if you don't do it right the first time than what's the point

How would it last against weather? For instance: Where my house is, my car gets direct sunlight on it in the mid-late afternoon, will this UV and heat destroy the sticker? and will the adhesive cause further long-term damage? this to me is only a short term fix & there is no amount of stickers that are going to make those scratches & dents just disappear, Yes the weather is so much unpredictable, i not think the adhesive will cause any more damage as you can see it is easily applied & i bet you could easily pull it off ;) i have a magic pen in my Glove box ;) but hoping sometime down the track that somebody does come up with an idea to cover up those unwanted Scratches, sadly when they gave me a sample pot of my Voo doo Blue it is a lot darker is why i choose not to use it. this is Just a short term fix. just remember that.!!

i totally agree with everything you have stated here & thanks for the laugh ;) i am not quite sure if i am just a little paranoid or i was Just born little Crazy but when i am sitting in the Car & somebody proceeds to open their Car door while i am sitting there my head turns in an instant ;) & i make Sure that there is no Contact or any sought of Contact, i am sure you will agree we just can't let people get away with it any longer, for too long this has been happening & we must get the message out loud & clear stating don't touch or You will feel my touch it doesn't matter where you Park under neath or outside in this Crazy Mixed up World our Beloved Cars are no longer Safe no matter where we park it, it gets me all fired up when i start to hear stories like this, they may not give a sh*t about their rent a bomb ;) but we do. i used to work in a Motel & that was when i was owning the V8 Commodore & would you believe it was about once a Year that i had to make a Claim to AAMI saying my Tiger's been hit in the Car Park & with me not in it that was so frustrating, people are becoming too much Careless is why Today we Must get a Dash Cam or what ever you like to Call it so that we can Protect our Pride & Joy enough is enough there is so much we can only take & it may seem like only a Scratch to them but to us it Pierces our hearts. it's funny when we get ****** we really get ****** well if you feel the way i do my Car is now apart of me OK i guess we can't wrap it up in bubble wrap all the time it would cost a fortune that Bubble Wrap isn't Cheap you know ;)

First of all i Congratulate you for staying Cool Calm & Collected & even though i am not a " P " Plater i can only imagine his tone of Voice & not forgetting blaming you first before asking or trying to figure out what happened. i believe those nasty A$$ driver's who lay blame first & rant & rave with everything else are Guilty beyond a shadow of a doubt. OMG $2,500 worth the damage & his car was being repaired, did this guy get his license off the back of a cereal box coz he sounds like he need to be off the road where he can't abuse anybody else for his own mistakes. i guess he wasn't wearing his glasses or maybe he was a little drunk at the time, you never know with those Crazy unpredictable low life's as i like to call them. you know i wouldn't like to be a P Plater not in today's Society as i find more & more P platers are being Blamed for just about everything & we must not just lay all the blame on them, he definitely sounds like a no hoper one i not wish to run into ;) thank God for your dash cam where would we be without them, & i Bet he Settled down once you informed him of your dash cam hmm the Evidence is too much now you have him begging haha
