the only thing holding people back from "JDM-ing" their car is money. No one wants to drop the change for the real stuff...my friend is the owner of a 2008 xB with the first Rumion conversion in the states. Full conversion...they spent nearly 4k (maybe actually closer to 6, I don't remember) on all the pieces. Taillights/hood/front and back bumper/grills/headlights/foglights/front quarter panels....it was a trip, but it looks great. Only thing I had the pleasure of helping him install were the taillights and the interior rear quarter panel which houses the subwoofer and tweeter (Corolla Rumion optional only)
He has some other Rumion goodies..but the point is not many people in the Scion community want to drop that kind of money; in fact it seems like a lot of people would rather find knock off sht and claim to be JDM converted.
sure wish I had the interest in the xD and money to drop on converting to the modellista optional kit...it looks so good haha
