My new (to me) 2007 SE
Hey everyone, I'm new to the site and new to the Camry. I have an '07 SE V6 and I couldn't be happier.

The previous owner attached chrome door pillars and handes. I'm on the fence on whether or not they should stay. If I do decide to remove them, what's the best/safest method? It looks like its double sided tape.



or ?

Don't mind the chrome handles, don't care at all for the other chrome.

Looks nice though overall!

I'm not a huge fan of chrome, either. I picked it up as is w/the TRD wheels, TRD air filter and the chrome pillars/handles. It also has woodgrain intererior but no Nav or leather. I'll post some more pics when I get in a chance in the next day or so. I spoke to the service manager about the history and it had HID's but they removed them and put back the stock headlights to make it "certified" pre-owned.

The chrome fits in. Doesnt stand out too much. Considering there is chrome around the window edges it flows nicely. I say leave it. Love the rims.

Nice over all. yes you are a little too late to jump on the band wagon. My Camry is 2 years old. lol Everything on mine is still OEM except for the HID headlights. I'm somewhat needing a new set of tires.. about to hit 50K miles on the ODO.

Looks nice.

The chrome doesn't stand out too much with that color. I say leave them on.

BTW, is it lowered?

I would keep the chrome door handles but the cheesy pillar ones have to go. Smacks of cheap taste.
