Thanks to your 05+ pic, Allen, I was able to photoshop what mine would look like with my current grill and if my Camry were white and had 20" chromes...

Glaring blue HID bulbs are NOT classy, and don't make your car look nice, no matter what that kid in the Civic told you.
the kits is affordable, is only $710, but main concern i am going to scrape it when i park on curve and go up drive way. and speed bums and pot holes. pot holes is everywhere in L.A.
^Well, with a drop and a kit, you have to go up driveways and stuff at a diagonal... but as far as potholes... aGen5camry is lowered with the Vizages kit, and I don't think he has all that much trouble with them. He's not THAT low. There's still plenty of clearance. It looks low in the pic because that Camry is SLAMMED. You'll be fine. aGen5camry told me that he can even still clear his kit with his jack.

white3chocolate, were the one who asked about retrofitting projectors into headlights, were you be able to complete your project, and what kind of projectors are you getting
^ Yeah, but I never got the project started. If I do it, its going to be way down the road for me. I'm expecting a set of Tein S.Tech springs to come in tomorrow, so I'll be installing those, and I might do exhaust and brakes. We'll see what happens after that, but if and when I do it, I'll definitely let you know.

man, that 's a lot of work ahead of you. do teins spring better than eibach, anyway are you gonna do everything by DYI. that's some talent you got there. but good luck
Well, the springs I'm going to DIY. Gonna head over to Alhambra to aGen5camry's place and we're gonna install them. You think Tein's are better? I hope so... I've been reading mixed reviews. Lots of people say the ride is awesome, and some people say its harsh... so... I don't know lol. I'm sure it'll be fine. As for the brakes, I'm probably gonna do them myself, but I don't know how to sand down a rotor, so I might have a guy I know do that for me. The exhaust... well.. I'm gonna see if I can go through some connections and hopefully get a good price on a TRD sport muffler, which is a pretty easy install. So yeah, pretty much all DIY.
