Anthony Rodriguez understands the challenge of modifying a 2012 Scion tC. “The brand itself and what it stood for caught my attention,” he explains, “not to mention I love the task of modifying a car that isn't so common in the tuner scene."
Ensuring he stands out from the crowd, Rodriguez slapped on a Nia Auto Design splitter kit, and has also made some additional choice modifications with brands like Password JDM, HPS, Avant Garde and Meng Motorsports. Stay tuned for more of this tC!
