I was thinking of doing this too. Thanks for posting pics and doing it. Now I can get a better idea if I want to do it.

I think it'll look a little better with a license plate frame, and some more angles & further shots would be nice.

Different question, did you do the black/red Scion logo yourself or buy them somewhere? I've been thinking of doing the same for 7 months now.

Looks like a chalkboard. Maybe if it was gloss. I kind of like it, would like to see it in gloss though

Nice tail lights ^_^

Personally. I like it. I like how the lines blend with the rear diffuser.

Off topic. Are your Scion Badges aftermarket? If so, do you mind sharing where you got them?

I definitely like the contrast, not the texture.

I have to agree that it adds a mustangesque feel to it. But the quality of the work appears to be good, and if you like the contrast it creates, then success! It's your car after all. I definetely hadn't seen it done on this forum yet, so props for creativity.
I personally would have no desire to do it to my car, but that's the joy of tuning/modding--everyone's tastes are unique!
