Has aonyone here cracked open your factory healights to black the chrome out? Is there a easier way to do it? I have not seen many aftermarket healights for the 5th gen camry. If anyone has done thsi can you post pics?
my car will be silver. I have not purchased it yet. I was told the xle I was looking at wa sthe top of the line camry and when I went to look at it there was not leather, alloys, sunroof, or spoiler. I advised the dealer to put katskin leather and some alloys I wanted on it. I am suspose to go drive it tomorrow and give them a final decision on it.
Oh, plus someone put a nice dent the the front right quarter panel. Depending on how it looks after they fix, I will make my decision.
I am looking to put all my RF audio gear in it. I have found a trunk lip spoiler and a new front grill and eyebrows for about 100.00 bucks un painted. Does anyone know where I can find some silver paint to match the factory pretty close. Its not got to be exact.
Go to the dealer and ask for that model's paint. They should have it, and it should exactly match in shade and color. Otherwise just go to walmart or autozone or any store that has auto paint and just rty to match it up. IMO go with factory paint from dealer.

all Gen 5 SE have the blacken headlights and badges, optional 3.3v6 and a few other gadgets that the LE and XLE don't have.
