Gen 3 Camry Question!!!!?!?!

[markeb408]

i hope this is TRUE! but can u use 1992 lexus es300 body parts for a 1996 camry?!?!?! HELP!!! IM DYING TO KNOW!

It's true. All of the front body panels of an equvalent year es300 will fit on gen3 - 3.5 camrys. May require some modification to fit perfectly, but it will work. I've seen a 94 Camry wagon with an es300 front end. It looked pretty sweet, and almost factory.

the ES300 front end requires excess modification, so basically the answer is no...

the only member currently active on these boards who is trying it i believe is Adam (ASG14) ...

Kinda like with the S13 and the 180SX in Japan, resulting in the Sil-eighty.

Only, judging by Venom's wisdom, it needs plenty more work.

[Venom_5]

its just not quite the same ....





ES300 conversion, anyone done it yet?

[N35QU!K]

Hmm.. youre right... Now that i think of it, the Camry has a flatter nose than the ES, which is a bit more rounded.

You would theoretically need ES300 fenders, front bumper, headlights, and hood to do a front end conversion and probably some other things too. Just not worth it IMO, and I like the Camry front bumper more than the Lexus...it's more aggressive to me. Headlights though are definitely nice on the ES300 with the projectors.

PM to ASG14 if he doesnt post here, hell know first hand of this.

[prnc_chrmng]

no, otherwise it would be done by some other memeber alread if it was that simple.

ASG14 is the man to talk to about it tho. but it not a direct swap if thats what your planning.
