Any exterior differences between a '93 and a '95?

[Heat]

I have a '95 LE sedan. A movie company is looking for '93 or earlier cars as extras for some movie scenes to be shot in Springfield, Illinois (some Matt Damon movie).

Before I clean it up and send in a photo, could my '95 LE pass for a '93? It's the midnight blue color.

Not if the movie go'ers know there Camry Gens. It wouldn't pass!

nope not unless you change the rear panel, headlights, and front bumper

Dang. Oh well. Last fall I sold a '93 Volvo station wagon that was in good shape, I'm sure that would have made the cut.

The scene is at a country club, they are looking for cars for the parking lot.

I wonder why they are being so specific about the year and model.

Preview from movie.

Actress: You are a handsome young man, you appear to be rich, and you must drive a fancy car.

Matt Damon: I am handsome, I am rich, but I drive a 93 Camry - I like to think of myself as sensible. I am considering stepping up to a 95 midnight blue Camry, but that will have to wait.

Heat: Excuse me sir, I happen to have a 1995 midnight blue Camry.

Matt Damon: I'll buy it (the scene closes with Matt Damon driving off into the sunset listening to Desperado)

Post flashes back to reality - I would submit it, all they can say is no.

Perhaps they are just trying to make it look like it was shot in the early 90s?

Had I read more carefully I would have realized that. I thought they were a 93 Camry. I didn't realize it was 93 cars or earlier.

I get it now, but maybe I will go into writing scripts.

You would have to change the headlights, corner lights, grille, front bumper cover/turn signals, trunk center panel, and tail lights to make your gen3.5 look like a gen3.

Yeah...they don't want movie geeks to point out on Yahoo Movies that a gen 3.5 was ina movie set in 92 or something. Imagine a real life comicbook guy from the Simpsons taking notes.

[uibalnme]

Well, considering the line Damon has to deliver...

Matt Damon: I am handsome, I am rich, but I drive a 93 Camry - I like to think of myself as sensible. I am considering stepping up to a 95 midnight blue Camry, but that will have to wait.

It must be set in at least 94. Eh...whatever.

good point, sort of like the vapor trail of a jet in the sky of a Clint Eastwood western set in Oklahoma.

Will the 93 headlights and grille swap out on a 95 without doing the bumper cover?


Thanks

If you trim the bumper cover, yes.
