Default Tokyo Auto Salon Aimgain

Hey all. I just returned from a half-week at the Tokyo Auto Salon and spent a considerable amount of time at the Aimgain booth there. The show overall was great with incredible amounts of people. I took some photos that I wanted to share with everyone so enjoy!

awesome pics. when i was in osaka back in september i saw a couple prius's that actually looked pretty sweet with their tucking 19's (or whatever size they were), body kits, and lights and what not. i actually want to upgrade my wifes scion xA (ist) to the new 2010 prius and get some of these vip mods going. we would be the only vip prius this side of something thats for sure. i bet the mpg's really suffer at that point but who cares.

that is a prius in the first few pics right?? i also counted a few other various small toyota's with L badging and nice vip add-ons. those alphards or whatever are pretty sick too but don't tell anybody i said that


i keep telling myself that one of these years i will make it out there for the big auto show, oh well gotta wait another 2 years then.. do you have a link to any more pics from that show?? thanks again for the pics.

No problem with the pics. I took a ton of them and don't know what to do with them. Hahaha. Unfortunately I have to resize every single one of them and its a pain. I'll try to put up more as the week goes on. The camera that I took pictures with wasn't exactly working out for me so excuse the wierd ones.

I'm also thinking that if someone does the Prius thing, that it actually might become something. Anyone want to be the first? Hahaha!

Yeah, maybe making a Prius with the Aimgain kit might be another way to go. How many people do you think would be interested in doing something like that?

@sojah, I would love a program like that, it'll make it so much easier for me to post pics. lol

the program name believe it or not is 'Free Photo Converter'... it is the last choice on the page at: http://www.pixelapp.com/

i was originally thinking to do a prius like that for my wifes next car but now that i think about it, if i put that much time effort and money into that car and it looked anything like that aimgain prius above i would probably not let her drive it and i would keep it for myself...

______---_______
someone at my work is selling a loaded (#4) 2008 dark blue on beige prius with 24k miles for 14k... how much do you think the parts alone would cost to make it look like that older gen prius aimgain above roughly?? body kit, air, wheels, tint, exhaust, and led bumper stuff???
