Looks phenomenal. The STI spoiler surprisingly looks clean af & and the louvers look fantastic. If you ever decide to make louvers to sell, I am definitely buying.
I installed MGP caliper covers and painted them baby blue, it looks great with the contrast of the black rims. I highly recommend it since you're into DIYs
I have the same color TC, 2015 and I really love those louvers and wing... Think I'm probably going to hunt for a Celica wing though, so I can "keep it in the family" lol
I'm absolutely in love my dude. What video did you use as a reference for the louvers? I REALLY want some on my tc. I just have absolutely no idea how to begin. Any tips would be amazing. If you videoed yourself making the louvers that would be awesome.
GKR Motorsports Hell yeah if you need any pointers or some info I’ve done it before and wouldn’t mind helping you out. Good luck with your tc! I’ll have vids up soon of mine :)
As awkward as this might be, i texted you the other day about the stock spoiler. Next time you need some minor paint work like your louvres or spoiler let me know. My shops about 40 minutes from school
I have a 2016 Scion Tc. What is the light marker above the fog light called? My light on one of them went out and can’t find the name for it, to replace it.
Would you be willing to make a set of Louvers for my tC?? I’d be completely down to pay for shipping and everything man. They look sick i just dont have the equipment to make them myself.
I kinda thought that was a STi wing..what year if you dont mind me asking? Ive been trying to find a wing that doesnt scream rice for my TC but the ones ive seen seem weird but this one is PERFECT
Did you Tint the back window or do you think it’s not necessary with the louvers? Because that’s what I’ve been wanting to put on my car but that’s been my doubts
I used the self tapping screws. Honestly its been fine so far, but I may add 3m tape too. At highway speeds it definitely pushes down on the bumper pretty good. I know some people have issues with the bumper latches by the wheel well.
So seeing as I had extra metal from making the louvers I just cut 2 strips and bent them so they hooked under the hatch. They are riveted to the louvers. I didn't bolt them to the trunk but you easily could
@@ernestoruiz4946 no problem. I didn't want to fully rely on the 3m tape so I put those in as a fail safe. They've never budged thankfully so far even in winter and highway speeds.
I just picked up a tc today and I'm hearing a whine. Goes away when foot is on clutch but even at idle it makes noise. Since you have a clean tc I wondered if you could give advice. Thank you
Unfortunately the J2 brackets aren't exactly perfect by the muffler so when I had the shop weld on my bypass valve he added a new hanger to fix it. It should be pretty cheap for a shop to do or buy a hanger and weld on yourself. Prior to the new hanger I used metal cable tied underneath to center it.
how do you see through those louvres? Dont they disrupt your visual when you are in reverse? Also, can you open up your hood with that large spoiler without hitting the louvres?
Thanks, that's why I made the video. I have taken a lot of inspiration from others and now I want to give back. Currently I have only removed my side skirts and plasti dipped them, but I will be making or buying some form of actual side skirt trim.

GKR Motorsports so I got this one do you think they will be practically the same? Thanks by the way!m.ebay.com/itm/Fit-Subaru-08-14-Fit-WRX-08-11-Impreza-STI-4Dr-Sedan-ABS-ST-Style-Trunk-Spoiler/201452752759?fits=Model%3AWRX+STI&epid=808163716&hash=item2ee7850f77:g:CagAAOSw0wRaDlDp
I removed the emblems and took them apart to paint just the emblem itself. The front one is held onto the car by clips and the rear by adhesive. Once you get them off the car they have two small screws and a set of clips that separates the emblem into two pieces.
damn dude, you think getting a scion TC today is still worth it? Out of all the cars ive seen i personally think that it sounds like a good deal if i want something reliable
I mean in terms of a reliable daily I think it's perfect if you ignore the fact it's slow. Hard to beat the reliability and price you can get them for. I got mine back in 2016 for 14.5k with 16k miles on it.
I like tcs and in the process of getting one. But i just don't get the two color themes throughout the car. Like the gas tank door being black just makes it look like you went to th junkyard and bought one from a black tc. Not a good look in my opinion. Black or carbon wrapped hood also not a good look. Looks like you bought the wrong hood and need to still get it paint match. Also the trunk latch being black also not a good look.

The oem spoiler was a pain to remove. It had 6 bolts holding it on that are accessed through the trunk under the trim. The spoiler also had at least 2 expandable rivets towards the ends. The last and hardest part was the adhesive strip under the spoiler holding it to the trunk. I did my best to use heat and fishing line to remove that.
Bypass valve for 4 cylinder. LOL. I drive tuner cars and I never put one of those on a 4 cylinder, not only does it sound like shit you lose back pressure.
See you never using one and using that logic that only certain cars can utilize them is a joke. Drive any length of time with a catback exhaust and no muffler with passengers in the back and they wont ever ride with you again. The sound level difference with and without the valve can never be justified through a video.
Bro, don't take it the wrong way I have no H8 4 your build I just don't like bypass Valves and smaller Motors that's all your car's clean ...I have the exact same car oh, I just wouldn't do that no worries though if we were all the same all our stuff would look the same and there be no individuality so my bad if you took it the wrong way
MrCheko2040 when the weather gets nicer I will see about making some tutorials that talk about simple things such as bumper removal and my fog lights along with basic body panel removal.
unfortunately haha. Car was bought as a daily and surprise, I wound up not keeping it like that. If I ever turbo the car I will manual swap it first don't worry.
GKR Motorsports don't worry bro. Mine is automatic too. Wasn't in a position where I could be picky and just needed to get into a car. Just a bonus that it's something I don't mind modding.
Way I see it the cars already slow and always will be without a turbo or built motor so I would rather trick it out till that kind of money is available.
Why say something like that to him? hes just trying to show us things he did to his car himself that hes proud of and if its such a shitty car why are you looking at videos of them?
People talk shit about tcs but they look really damn good!
Fuck yeah
I concur as I have a Tc
People talk shit about any and every car. All about preference
It's a awesome car the only thing is when it comes to mods it is very limited
@@albertramos3 Exterior mods are awesome. They even have a turbski upgrade but ofc you can't run high psi :l
This is the cleanest TC I have ever seen, hopefully going to buy a '06 one
Looks phenomenal. The STI spoiler surprisingly looks clean af & and the louvers look fantastic. If you ever decide to make louvers to sell, I am definitely buying.
I second that on the louvers
I installed MGP caliper covers and painted them baby blue, it looks great with the contrast of the black rims. I highly recommend it since you're into DIYs
Yeah not sure, but my brake pads need to be swapped soon. Might make it a project.
Hey can you tell me more details?
dam i love your mods they don't scream rice and they just fit so well
Is this Stevie wonder? cause there's plenty of rice here.
Sity 909 Fr 😂
That's cherry bro! Good sheet metal work too for hand tools.
I have the same color TC, 2015 and I really love those louvers and wing... Think I'm probably going to hunt for a Celica wing though, so I can "keep it in the family" lol
#Built not Bought
I'm absolutely in love my dude. What video did you use as a reference for the louvers? I REALLY want some on my tc. I just have absolutely no idea how to begin. Any tips would be amazing. If you videoed yourself making the louvers that would be awesome.
That mesh grille goes so hard bro
Awesome car man, I’m pretty sad I got rid of mine:(
Should've built it
Sweet man, im debating on putting a lip on mine.
louvers ready for mad max
Where did you get your mesh grille from?
I love the Louvers. I think i need another TC and add these bad boys... Take that hail..
Super nice the only thing missing is a 6speed swap
Martinmurderous13 its crossed my mind a few times could be a down the road project haha
GKR Motorsports Hell yeah if you need any pointers or some info I’ve done it before and wouldn’t mind helping you out. Good luck with your tc! I’ll have vids up soon of mine :)
That's awesome, what kind of price tag would I be looking at assuming I do the work myself.
GKR Motorsports well on the cheap $800 but going with good products at max $1100-1200. Also it’s not that hard.
Hey man nice car! I’m trying to upgrade my 10s too, I was wondering where you got the front lip spoiler?
whys the car sitting so damn high off the ground?
Wow looks amazing man
Got a TC RS 10 and excited to modded it out, nice ideas gonna borrow some ma dude
I wanted that one but they are rare af so I bought as Series 9 lmao
Bro I got that same spoiler on my 2008 scion tc with good wheels
dude you are the best
Looks amazing man
As awkward as this might be, i texted you the other day about the stock spoiler. Next time you need some minor paint work like your louvres or spoiler let me know. My shops about 40 minutes from school
All I care about is horse 🐎 power
So nice
Where did you get that light up badge! I have a 14 tC and I want one
The car is the 10series so the badge came with lights in it, I just simply took it apart for paint and wrap.
i just bought my 2012 tc in dark blue and debating if i should plastic dip the rims or not
Does anybody else notice that this car sways alot when its windy or passing a semi?
where did you get the grill from? looks awesome
How much did everything cost
I still have mine getting brakes done
I have a 2016 Scion Tc. What is the light marker above the fog light called? My light on one of them went out and can’t find the name for it, to replace it.
Would you be willing to make a set of Louvers for my tC?? I’d be completely down to pay for shipping and everything man. They look sick i just dont have the equipment to make them myself.
I kinda thought that was a STi wing..what year if you dont mind me asking? Ive been trying to find a wing that doesnt scream rice for my TC but the ones ive seen seem weird but this one is PERFECT
how do you paint the wheels?
Where did you get that grill
Does that huge wing help? Cus now I want one.
Did you Tint the back window or do you think it’s not necessary with the louvers? Because that’s what I’ve been wanting to put on my car but that’s been my doubts
My back window was already tinted when I bought the car. Even with tint and louvers visibility out the back is pretty decent.
Looks Great
Another question, I have a lip like yours that I have been meaning to put on. Did you use 3M tape to mount it or just the self tapping screws?
I used the self tapping screws. Honestly its been fine so far, but I may add 3m tape too. At highway speeds it definitely pushes down on the bumper pretty good. I know some people have issues with the bumper latches by the wheel well.
GKR Motorsports how do you remove the panel inside the trunk to put the wing on
Add Neon Kit for Bottom of The tC!
Where did you buy the spoiler and now much was it
Thats called a wing not a spoiler
Hey man where did you get the hinges holding down the louvers? Happy New Years bud!
So seeing as I had extra metal from making the louvers I just cut 2 strips and bent them so they hooked under the hatch. They are riveted to the louvers. I didn't bolt them to the trunk but you easily could
@@gagekrisanda2648 thats genius, thank you so much. The glue gets weak over time, having hinges will do it!
@@ernestoruiz4946 no problem. I didn't want to fully rely on the 3m tape so I put those in as a fail safe. They've never budged thankfully so far even in winter and highway speeds.
Can you send me the link for the emblem in the front that's a light up emblem
The car is a 10series and came from the factory with those. you'd have to find someone selling one off their car.
Nice man love it
Do you make Louvers for sale now? I know this video is very old. Lol.
I’ve been looking to get one for my tc but not sure where to look.
I just picked up a tc today and I'm hearing a whine. Goes away when foot is on clutch but even at idle it makes noise. Since you have a clean tc I wondered if you could give advice. Thank you
My first guess would be a belt if you're saying it whines at idle
WOW on your car~!
Clean af
I have the J2 as well. But mine isn't centered to the bumper is there anything different that you used to hang the tip?
Unfortunately the J2 brackets aren't exactly perfect by the muffler so when I had the shop weld on my bypass valve he added a new hanger to fix it. It should be pretty cheap for a shop to do or buy a hanger and weld on yourself. Prior to the new hanger I used metal cable tied underneath to center it.
how do you see through those louvres? Dont they disrupt your visual when you are in reverse? Also, can you open up your hood with that large spoiler without hitting the louvres?
Yo, it's a hatch so the whole thing lifts up :)
How bout a blue print for the louver, I'm dying to make or buy one for mine.
I live across the river in PA and yea don't lower it anymore.
Yeah I go to school in PA so between my hometown and PA roads it would be scraping everything.
Nice car. I am just one of many here asking where to get the mesh grill?
From a guy in Canada. Look up a guy on facebook called sciongrillelife
Where and what mesh grill did you get?
Where did you order your spoiler from?
where can i find that spoilers
Cool!
You probably mentioned it in your last video, but how’d you make your side skirts?
Also great video man! I’ve got inspiration because of you
Thanks, that's why I made the video. I have taken a lot of inspiration from others and now I want to give back. Currently I have only removed my side skirts and plasti dipped them, but I will be making or buying some form of actual side skirt trim.
Where did you go to buy your stuff to make your louvers
I where can I get those sun deflectors
Besides the STi spoiler and the louvers the car looks good.
Where did you get that sti wing I'm looking for one as well

Kiba inzuka I believe so. As long as its the newer wrx body style it should fit. I was told 14-16 but not sure if the lower years work
GKR Motorsports I got my wing installed however by any chance did you have to drill holes past the trunk cover ?
GKR Motorsports I would show you pics of my car and the work done but cant seem to upload pics
Where you get your mesh grill?
That One guy most of the grills you see on tc’s are custom, with some mesh wiring
Where did u get the carbon fiber trunk lift?
I took it off and vinyl wrapped it.
How did you black out the scion emblem and still have the light shine thru?
I removed the emblems and took them apart to paint just the emblem itself. The front one is held onto the car by clips and the rear by adhesive. Once you get them off the car they have two small screws and a set of clips that separates the emblem into two pieces.
Where u buy that spoiler?
Which brand did you get for your fog lights?
Jacob A they are the non halo spyder auto fog lights.
Hey bro were you buy the spoiler wing
Do you have a link for the spoiler? I'm looking to replace my stock one.
Check out NIA. The only front lip for xB 2.5. $$$$ whoa

What louver is that?
where did you purchase your hood and emblems from?
Hood is a Vinyl Wrap and emblems are the 10 series emblems that came on the car that I took apart and painted.
I like tcs and in the process of getting one. But i just don't get the two color themes throughout the car. Like the gas tank door being black just makes it look like you went to th junkyard and bought one from a black tc. Not a good look in my opinion. Black or carbon wrapped hood also not a good look.

You Of New Jersey bro🇺🇸😎
Where did you got the clips to cover the holes on the spoiler
Dark Devil_Tc Actually they are just pieces of vinyl I cut out. I bought automotive clips but opted for the vinyl instead.
GKR Motorsports do you think I can find them at the auto parts
Yes they should carry them there. I just bought mine from lowes in hardware.
What name spoiler
You need some wheel spacers
Nice tc! Man! By any chance where can i purchase a lip lole yours ?
Are you referring to the front lip on the car I installed?
Yeah where can i purchase one? Want to put one on my '14 Tc
