Need advice!

[Flybutter]

I just bought a 1986 camry and at first I was having buyers remorse after finding out about some undisclosed mechanical issues that I will need to address soon but now I have changed my mind and decided I will keep the car and make it look super hot if possible...(okay okay, I'll buy the parts and pay someone to install them lol) I am not really inclined in such a way to do this myself.

Anyways...I searched online for body kits and was not able to find any for the 86 model, are there not any? I would like to do a full kit, custom paint, accessories...the whole 9! So this is where I need your guys help! Give me some ideas and help me beautify this hideous monster please! I don't want to do it myself and end up throwing things on that just do not flow well together...I've never been the greatest when it comes to style so keep me from wrecking my new girl!

Also I think the scheme I will end up going with will be metallic orange/black carbon fiber.

There are almost zero aftermarket parts available for your car. Good luck!

Even the more popular (and newer) gen2 Camry guys have trouble finding parts...

Yeah, was able to find one kit but it is hideous! There are places that will do custom work like I want though right? I just have to find them hmm...

Thanks for the reply!

Of course there are places. You can have anything you want with a lot of money. They'll need to make fiberglass molds and all that...

With the goals you have in mind (the "whole 9") it would be much better for you, your wallet, and your sanity to just sell this car and pick up a workable-canvas type of tuner-mobile. Your newly purchased car has almost zero "upgrades" that are readily available. Custom is going to be a grossly overused word in your vocabulary if you stick with this whip. Get yourself a 90s Civic or Integra and go bananas in the world of nearly-unlimited aftermarket support.
