it may not look like it, but the corolla text is still there, im considering taping off the corolla text, and painting it white like the body.

Nice photos. I think it would look better with it painted. Better yet, get your hands on a JDM orange and red trunk garnish that's the same as the taillights, like the one on my Corolla (see my CarDomain page for pics, or look at my avatar).

I could source you one over here if you want. I actually saw one on a Corolla at my local junkyard the other day (very cheap). I can't guarantee it'll still be there, but I can go back and have a look if you're keen. Otherwise I can get one from a wreckers, but it'll be more expensive. Up to you

im actually considering getting new tailights, they are similar to what you have, but the bottom thin and white, and the top is thick and red. they are really awesome looking. I also want to get clear corners for the front, i have been messing around with photoshop and really like the corners clear

thanks, My father said he thought it would look better with it gray. But when he saw it painted, he said he was glad i did it. Plus I think it came out pretty good. Trying to think what else I can do.
