Okay guys...check this out. What IF...i get a reflective vinyl and use it over the rear backup lights. It will be cred, see through, and it will look reflective. I will also leave a little opening for the backup light so that when i put the car in reverse it will work and everythign will be street legal. ALSO what if I paint the rear bottom reflectors? What do you guy think?

Can anyone photoshop that for me? (Color matched rear reflectors) Here are a couple of pics of the rear..

I will try. but have little idea what that vynil you're talking bout loooks like.. any picture I could use?
Wow that looks pretty damn good. What do you guys think? SHould i go for it? Maybe get an extra set of reflectors and do it?

Best i could do:

Here is the other shot, I posted this in your mods thread.



I don't think it looks bad. I was joking with a friend of mine about knocking them out and piping a custom exhaust through each hole. :lol:

So I was curious what it would look like if the exhaust was piped through the rear reflectors, this is my quick photochop of it. :lol:

At first I lol'd hard, then thought about it. If we were putting 250+ hp to the wheels, hot damn that would look sweet.

Excellent shoop, by the way.
That looks damn sexy to me! 250hp or not I want it!!!!
Clear white reflectors would look good on silver. It all really depends on the paint color too.


Wish they would have used similar rectangular reflectors like on the Lexus IS250.

And just say no to dual exhaust. I don't care if you're pushing a billion horspowers...
It look aight..no doubt you got great photoshop skills...im just not feeling it.

How about bigger exhaust tips..Try to photoshop these on

Can you do me one more favor? Possibly photoshop this oval tip on this photo of my corolla.



Just one of the oval tips....Thanks guys..hoping to see how this plays out.

Thanks for the kind words about my Photoshop skills. I didn't drop the exhaust from the 300C pictures in because, relative to the car, they are actually almost identical in size. If you wanted to see a little more chrome I can pull them out a bit but I just blew up the exhaust from the original - the exhaust is 20% larger. If you want them bigger I can put some jet engine exhausts on there. :lol:



I assume you want a single oval tip on your Corolla, no color matched reflectors? I'll whip it up now.

Nice photoshop again I was thinking about a more round ended exhaust tip like the 300C (in the reflectors). And yes, the oval tip was for My car's exahust not the reflector openings. BTW the car looks better with a larger exhaust tip (jet engines not needed) lol.:thumbsup:
The picture of the oval pipes weren't the best to work with but this is the result. I left the hella glare from the chrome on because it looked strange when I blended the color (chrome isn't chrome without the shine).



The pipes from the 300C had the same general dimensions when I paired them up, the overlay from the factory exhaust I used was almost identical but the perspective is different which is why they seem more round. Once I warp them to fit the image they have a slight slant as well. I can still do it if you want, it just may look a bit... chunky. :dunno:
