As many of you might know already.. the Gen 2 Xb is being sold in Japan as a Corolla Rumion.. and there are some parts that isnt the same as the Scions are..

I just got in some of my conversion parts..

Here are some of the parts Chrome rear Hatch Handle and Badges and rear wing..

hey eight08custom , do you know if the rumion taillight is a direct fit on the xB.... and do you know if the rumion back bumper can be ordered...

hey eight08custom , do you know if the rumion taillight is a direct fit on the xB.... and do you know if the rumion back bumper can be ordered...

the tail lights from the Rumion are a direct fit for the '08 xB - i have not seen the rear bumper yet, only a rear bumper guard and some garnish

 

[Eric]

Keep in mind that you will need to rewire the reverse light to work with the Rumion tail lights, but you probably already know that if you're looking at getting the bumper, which doesn't have the single reverse like like the xB

thanks for the replies guys... as much as possible, i dont want to have to mold the xB rear bumper reverse light hole if i can get the Rumion rear bumper instead you know...

thanks again, Happy New Year

Im waiting for a full body kit for the rumion to come out Hopefully by garson.. my bumpers will be up for sale as soon as i find out on a body kit..

Aloha 808!!!

I am considering a Scion XB for my wife. She is a Japanese national and I would love to replace Scion badges with JDM. How difficult/easy was it to change the front badge...I guess the size does not perfectly match? Did you do it yourself?

Your car looks very, very nice! I previously laughed at my friend who rebadged his Infiniti with Skyline stuff....now I just might do it myself.

Hey I was wondering where would be the best place to pick up JDM parts, especially badges, and what kind of price range we talking?

Also does anyone have the Japan specs on the scions, such as motor and all that good stuff.

One place, and one that seems to have good prices is:
