Well, i picked her up from the paint shop... went for a $600 Maaco job. Looks fabulous (in my opinion). Nice fresh, shiny paint! It is just the original 6R1 Woodland Green Pearl.

Now I need to get the emblems back on.

Here's a pic with the final front end lowering and paint. Think I'm gonna tint the windows next week

The wheels I have on it now were a Craigslist find... set of 4 Devino wheels with pretty decent Toyo tires. One of the wheels was pretty beat up, so I figured I'd try my hand at a makeover. I think it came out pretty nice! Now I have to do the other three to match!

Looks great! When you do the next wheels can you do before and after pics and a quick 'how to'?
Your Camry is really coming along nicely!

Sure will. I'm actually working on them now. Taking a little break for some dry time...

I can't tell you the specifics but I would just buy a donor car. That way you have everything and then some, you know, sometimes stuff breaks.

Hey what's up peeps?! My wife and I just became the new owners of an 05 Camry Le today. 71000 miles for $6900 out the door. I'm hoping to locate a free shop manual somewhere online and became a member here to learn and share tips, pointers and tricks to keep this baby running in tip top shape. I am an unlicensed and un-certified mechanic however I do know my way around under the hood of most cars. Happy to be a part of the Camry community.
