Hi, welcome to the forum...

I cannot speak to questions #1 or #2, but I know that for #3 you need to talk to Charlie (aka white90dx)...

1. there needs to be a little modding as far as i know, but just get a 91 camry bumper, they're more common and cheaper too

2. I dont have HID in my 88 camry personally, but I do have them in my oddessy and 08 camry. I like them, but you really have to adjust angle since our 88's aren't projectors, you get alot of high beams and fingers in return =)

3. if i remember correctly his 1/4 was about 13 sec? but that was a long time ago since i read it. just search, there are 2 maybe 3 people with turboed cams and there are dyno results and track results floating around

Thank you for your replies. Only reason why i was interested in the lexus bumper cuz i like the one piece look instead of this crappy 2 piece bumper i have on mine. I heard some people found camrys with 1 pieces on them anyone have a picture for that?
So should i even worry about a hid kit. or just go with bright white bulbs?

depending on the rules down there, it may not even be legal to have HID kits in non projector lamps, although our camry's are so low i doubt it'll really blind anyone. Sylvannias silverstars are a good choice if you want bright white.

for me, i just use a pair of phillips bright whites, they only cost me about 10 buks a pair =)
nice and affordable

The one-piece bumpers (both front and rear) came into production on the 1989 model (only 87 and 88 got the 2-piece).

hm. oh! you mean the signal lights are integrated into the bumper i see! i like it more too =) too bad can't find it here, its probably just a couple different mount points. just get a couple right angled brackets from homedepot and screw it in if need be. safety wise, the bumper doesn't do much, its the frame so no worries on how you "tape" it on =P
