Default Body kit started!

I just put the front bumper of my body kit on today, its the tsunami kit. Its a temporary fitment to see how it works. I love the look personally. So go ahead with comments and complaints. It has to be put on before its painted because its urathane. the fitment is perfect but I still havto drill holes for screws. Let me know what you guys think.

Congrats, you are the first CLer to put on that kit... I would get it, but damn I don't have enough money.......Someday.

I may have something for you soon in regards to the eyelids.... Oh and also, what are you plans on the paint? Are you going monotone?

That black ES was running a custom turbo... He has never posted here, but one of his friends aznchild808, he owned a blue ES with custom fit Camry kit, confirmed that the car did have a turbo.

Thumbs up

looks good! Just watch out for those high angled driveways, speed bumps, curbs & bad pot holes!

Now the front bumper of that kit really spells out "Tsunami" Are you planning to wire your fog lights into the bumper? Beware of the streets in NYC if you live there, and keep us updated!

I'm not sure if I'm staying with the two tone or not. I actually got the kit for $1300 total, thats after taxes and shipping. My local tuner shop talked to tsunami directly and set up that deal. I'm getting rims soon as well as a drop but im worried about scaping the ground a lot because its already so low. I'm slowly affording this project and it will be finished soon I hope. Painting is next on the agenda and I still havnt decided about that. I found the rims I want and they will be on order soon. I'll continue to post pics as I move along. If anyone has any questions just add to this thread or PM me.\

edit: yes I havto rewire the foglights and actually mount them somewhere else as they did not fit in their normal location.
