i took out the white bulbs in the corners of my 05 camry...added some blue bulbs..added a pair of blue fogs in the lower grill area. Big pain the butt.

Next will be to switch the stock headlights out with the halos' and i found a nice led stock taillight that japan uses on there camrys .. Everything is a bit pricey too....

For now tho it will be all under the hood work..Its almost 100k Once the warranty is up its time for the real work to be done

I hear that bro but thats also pricey. Especially for me, not too much out there for my old 3g anymore. the 5sfe motor didnt get much toys from what I can see. I'd love to replace it with a 3sgte turbo, with a catback exhaust and a custom spectre intake.

I found out that those lense covers for the headlights dont actually replace the stock covers, but rather fit over them and adhease with double sided tape. since thats the case, I think I will still do it, but change to the smoked covers, then smoke tint the turn indicators and add a H4 HID conversion kit with 4300k white Xenons (so I dont loose any headlight strength from the smoked lenses). Does that sound like a plan?

here is the link for the HID conversion kit http://www.xtralights.com/index.asp?...amp;ProdID=241

I just found some HID conversion kits on ebay for about $90 after shipping, but they only havethem in 8000k. I think I might go for it anyway. They are waterproof and also straight plug n play kits.

Thats cool. I was lookin a while back at a blackhousing kit, its a whole new headlight assembly that has black reflectors on the inside, rather than the typical silver. The lens is completely clear, and it's all DOT and everything. It was a whole $125 and at the time I didnt have any money but I just started my new job so I think i will have to search for those again

yeah, they make that kinda **** for every year except my 99. Its like the aftermarket production took a break around Y2K and then resumed when all was clear

Stephy (my g/f) was laughing at that. What are the similar years in that generation? 97-01? I'll take a look for them, Im sure someone has something.

Like i said, the 00-01 look pretty damn close to the 97-99 lights. I'd say at least give it a look and see if they'd fit. if not, go with a set of eyelids.
