Gen5 Help Needed!!!!!

http://memimage.cardomain.net/member.../691235_57.jpg


Ive always wanted to know who he is and how he ended up putting the lower part of the grill in. The only thing i came up with was cutting the part of the bumper that splits that area in half on the stock bumper, then customizing it from a grill from another car, or if they sell grills like that you just cut and slip into place. But if he did do it that way, he did it with the corners slanted towards eachother and pointed upward, unlike the stock bumper, the corners are slanted towards eachother but pointed downwards.


Or if he used an aftermarket bumper?



Im thinking about doing this if I plan on putting on a new lip kit and sideskirts (save the rest, for surprises.) But if i do, Im automatically going to repaint my front and rear bumpers. So that leaves area to mess around with it.

the picture you are looking at is actually the Gen5.5 camry which has a different bumper than the Gen 5 which you have. the newere bumper has a sort of cutout/ inset where this person has added the bottom grill. i hope this helps.

^what he said. I believe the metal grill is inserted to cover the stock and ziptied in place. Ebay has a few of these.

i'd love to have a black mesh grille to cover the bottom of portion of the bumper. It would look good i think.

I wasn't asking for opinions, even though they are good at times, but noones judgement will keep me from doing what I would like to do. so keep the bagging down, I mean if i was rollin on some Walmart spinners, I would totally understand.


Enough with that, I found what im going to do to my front end, and cant wait to start it.


And Foompla - how did you get rice out of this forum. Wait a second, let me go run to me car really fast right now and put some stickers on it. SWeet now I have alittle pocket rocket
