Nice tint for sure, probably HID/at least white bulbs (with the projector, it should look nice) I would probably keep the wheels for now and maybe have it changed after 1 year or so. That's it for me to keep the classy look of camry.

The first item on my list was tint,followed by HID kit, and now currently replacing all speakers and changing out the crapy radio. It is taking some time making a dash kit to work in the car.

You'll have a hard time finding performance (speed) because the car is so new. I'm not sure whether springs/struts are out for the gen6 yet though.

Get Tint,HID, Sound System or Rims (Rims usually go well w/ suspension because you aren't riding super super high).

What? If it was mine, I would keep the radio, I like the blue tint at night from the headunit.

Same here. I haven't listened to the audio though. If sound quality is really an issue, I would probably change the speakers without sacrificing the stock beautiful look.

Sound quality is not an issue. The most I'd do to my audio system (I have the 6cd changer/440w jbl system in my 07) is throw a sub in the back and hook up a crossover so all the low freqs go to the sub. That's all it will ever need.

Defninitely not for an SE, and without a full coilover type set up, I wouldn't touch it.

why wouldnt this be for an SE? if they ever make a full coilover setup for gen6's, alot of people probably wouldnt be able to afford it.

Yeah man, that blue hue is sexy!

I just got an HID kit. Installing it this weekend. Gonna call around for tint quotes this weekend too. Would eventually want rims on it, but not without some kind of lowering springs.

I wouldn't touch the radio (yet). If your not happy with the audio, then run your own seperate amps, and use high-level level converters...from your speaker wire to covert to RCA level. Hide it all nicely away in the boot/parcel shelf. Replace the stock speakers with some competition standard ones, concealed nicely behind the stock locations...and hey presto!
