Toy xBox – June 7, 2003 – June 17, 2006

Yes it is sad but true time to put this project to bed, no more mods, no more sleepless weekends, and it is time to finish the other 3 projects I have. I might even finally get serious on opening a Custom Shop to support my habit.

I would like to thank all those peeps that keep me going and all the new sponsors I worked with on this project especially Scion for the Screen time and giving back so much to it’s owners, Varad and Xenarc for giving me the opportunity to showcase my box in two of the biggest conventions in the industry SEMA and CES, Scion Evolution for staying true to the dream and future of the SE family.

I will still be lurking around and hitting the shows so don’t think I am jumpin ship, I just have a 1972 Celica that has been waiting patiently to be brought back to life.

The following pics are a brief look at what I drove off the lot of Cabe Toyota and what I have created over the last three years. Remember “Waiting is the hardest part” - JDM 101

Wow. Thats a clean ride!! Nice craftsmanship. I've only seen partial pictures of it before but nothing with the full shot. Nice execution of style and appearence. But you know what they say, I'll never be done!! Hope the best of luck if you do ever open up a shop. I will bet that you will take pride in your work as you have done with your own projects. 8)

Thanks for reinforcing my decision to go with RS*R. I didn't realize it had a lean on it too. I already knew it sounded nice :smitten:

Thanx

It is part of the DAMD kit, I am not sure if they are still available it took me a year to get this one I have a second one on order but that was back in October and I have no idea what the status is. Like most of the real JDM stuff you just order as mush as you can get away with and wait and see, that the hardest thing to do is wait :uglystupid2:

Mad props to you man!  Ive been following your progress since early 04 when we on the Right coast got our xB's.  Saddly my first one i got in feb 2004 was totaled out by a civic no less.  Kinda set me back in my progress... But i feel like ive always been chasing your work!  Easily one the top 5 xBs i know of in the states.  And a few of those 5 have been sold now...  One day youll have to tell me what you made that pillar/ceiling light bar out of...  I REALLY like how that looks.  I need to stop drooling now, my keyboards getting sticky!  >Mikey
