Chrome Trunk Handle Trim

TRD VVTi · 08-20-2007, 01:17 PM

Very nice!

I REALLY like the chrome on the decklid/trunk.

Where did you get the chrome trunk trim from?

I am sure the Gen 6.5 will have the chrome trunk lid just like the Gen 5.5
Everytime I see a Gen 5.5 with the chrome trunk lid....I said to myself I gotta have that!!!

Now you can't say I never shared...

Hmm, $29 plus $25 for shipping means you are paying $54 from Ebay. You can buy from an online retailer for $58 with free shipping (Putco distributor)...

The only problem was they didn't have the picture to show the exact fit to the 2007 Camry. I called and the rep said "It SHOULD fits!!!" He didn't even know the 2006 and 2007 are not the same. So I went ebay with the picture. The reason it cost $25 shipping is because it came from Hong Kong.

Putco's pic from their website...

What did you use for the strip on the lower edge of the trunk lid?

Oh man...had I seen those picture I would have bought from them but oh well.
The strip on the lower edge I used from a chrome strip I bought from Autozone.
Measured and cutted a trim piece by myself.

It looks great. Just the right amount of chrome without over doing it, IMO.

Rapid Roy · 08-20-2007, 03:12 PM

What did you do to your rear trunk logo. Did you paint the area underneath black? Mine shows the base paint through.

JoeS_07SE · 08-20-2007, 03:28 PM

Very nice I love the dorr sills, they are much better than the ones I bought from Toyota, and cheaper I bet too. Where did you get them from? Also after about a week or so I noticed rubbing on my door sills, form the door, let me know if yours do this as well. It kind of scratched them a bit.

P.S. The dealer sills for like $125 look like shit compared to those and they scratch very very easily.

I didn't even notice the lower chrome strip on the trunk until it was pointed out. That looks great too! Not noticing it at first makes me like it even more. Subtle mods are the best. If you add a bunch of them together you change the car just enough to personalize it.

I looked at your CarDomain site and I really like those chrome mesh like wheels that you had.

Great looking car with classy, sporty, and tasteful mods.

Is everything cool since you got it back?
