i hate deer

ok i have a 1995 camry coupe and i just got it running right and was getting ready to get it painted its really my project car. i love this car a lot and i got it for 1 hell of a deal(300$), but i just hit a deer about 2 weeks ago. i got the whole front end sitting in my bed room atm but the headlights are another story. i wanna upgrade them to something alot brighter and nicer. i replaced the passegers side light alredy but put a new stock set. i want a whole head light set up anyone know where i can get a custom one for my camry. also the drivers side got a whole in the cover and blood in it. would i just have to get a whole new light set up or just get a better light bulb. also i do not wanna do a whole bunch of messing with the head lights wires. i seen these and like what i saw. I hit the deer going about 65mph =@

Too bad that deer doesn't have insurance client to cover you. Maybe God does agree that you got a deal too good to be true, so he just made things even out, lol.

Seriously though, chop off the deer head and use it as the new emble ^^

I think the Gen3 front end looks better on a coupe than the 3.5, and the Alero foglights fit in the bumper easier/better.

Since it's your project car, why not do a projector retrofit? A few of us here have already done it, and it's a better option than doing a gen3(92-94) headlight/grill conversion IMO. You'll have to contact TN member Greg Cheban for the clear gen3.5(95-96) lenses, and build the headlights yourself. Greg can do the retrofit for you, but it's cheaper to DIY.

+1 on the Alero fog lights too. I'm lovin' them.
