Looks nice! Great price too. Iron Man is better than all the Transformers stuff in my opinion haha.
New Grilles!
I found some really nice grilles on Ebay, bought them, and installed them.
Here's a link
08-10 SCION XB MESH GRILLE SET UPPER + LOWER ABS BLACK - eBay (item 170597439042 end time Mar-01-11 13:30:16 PST)
I should note, these grilles did Not come pre-cut for the fog lights, but I knew that when I bought them so... I made them fit. lol
Here's some pics, lemme know what ya think...

Joey you did a great job! The grille with the fogs looks like it came that way. Im really a huge fan of the OEM grille but this setup really looks awesome.
looks great ! wish they made it for a 2011
Looks Great! It cleans up the front end.
how sturdy are these grills?
Nice job man! That looks real cool!
Can you take more pics from a further distance/angle? In order to get the lower to fit with the fogs, do you just cut off the excess? I've been wanting to buy these exact ones, but didn't know how they looked on the xb2. Thanks for posting btw!
Yeah I wanted to do something out of the ordinary. Plus I've always thought the xB's headlights slightly resembled the eyes on Iron Man's helmet. So I've renamed my xB2 "War Machine"... lol:biggrin:Looks nice! Great price too. Iron Man is better than all the Transformers stuff in my opinion haha.
These are super sturdy, and made of thick ABS Plastic. I was actually surprised at how good quality they were!how sturdy are these grills?
In order to get the lower grille to fit I used the Fog Light template that is on the install PDF. http://www.trdsparks.com/install/PT857-52080inst.pdfCan you take more pics from a further distance/angle?

That got me pretty close to the fit of the Factory Grille, but there was still some slight trimming I had to do with a cut-off wheel to get the fit just right. I'm just glad I got it right with this grille and didn't have to buy another one. lol
Oh, and I'll try to take some better pics as soon as I can.
Nice find! I had started to consider dropping >$80 for just an upper!
How did you get the fogs to fit so flush??
dang. i might just have to be a copy cat and get these too.
