I have a couple questions relating to the following image from Scion's website, in the modded picture gallery:

What body kit and rims does this xB have on it?

Notice the text at the bottom of the image...why is this kit not street legal?

Thanks,

Jordan

i suck at telling wheels apart, so i can't tell ya off the top of my head what they are...

however, that body kit looks to just be digitally edited on... meaning... there's no such kit in production that looks like that.

scion always puts cars in their ads in colors that don't exist, with wheels and kits that don't exist... sorry bro.

Because technically, any modification of a vehicle with non-OEM parts is tampering with emissions, therefore it is a federal offense. No one really gives a poop, but Scion has to put that disclaimer to cover their asses.

I have seen those wheels before. I am trying to remember who makes them. I will see if I can find them. The kit does not exist. You can tell by the lines on it, it is made through photo shop or something like that.

Thank you for the explanation regarding the body kit.

Anyone have any ideas on what these rims are? Where they can be bought? And a rough estimate on price?

You haven't been into customizing cars long, have you? :lol:

They appear to be Volk TE37's. [url]Linky.[/url] As far as price, they're fairly expensive due in part that they're forged and pretty light. As I do recall, there's a gaggle of knockoffs that aren't forged, just cast. The knockoffs are far less expensive!

Happy shopping!

Haha, I've never customized a car. I don't even own an xB yet, but it appears that we will be buying one soon, but those hub caps they come with just won't do and the price they charge for rims is horrid.

Thanks for your help. I appreciate it.
