Nice progress so far. Alot of your pics were taken in the shadows and made the mods kinda hard to see and appreciate. Take some better pics with a higher pixel digital camera for better quality. Still looks kinda stock though. The dual exhaust is a good idea. Wish they would have cut or shaved an indentation in the bumper to make it look like the second exhaust belonged there. I assume you're still working on it though. Right now the second exhaust looks as though it was just stuck on as an afterthought. Angel eyes on a ES,,that's hot!!!! Please post pics when you have finished. Good work and look so far.

thx for commenting trukn1. I'll try to take some better pictures in a brighter environment and the dual exhaust. the left tip actually have a cut edge on the bumper identical to the factory cut on the right side. I'm glad the custom shop did such a nice job cutting it and "Y" the pipes since dual exhaust is rare for es models. ill try to get some more pics of my customization later.

i was also thinking of adding lips and side skirt to my current stock bumpers, maybe that will get rid of the stock look on the outside.

LIke the first pic on this page: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=154147

But aftermarket parts are eXtremely hard to find for this model..... any suggestions??

You want hard to find aftermarket parts, try modding the first gen LS. LOL!!!! You might want to try TRD as many of your car parts will directly cross relate to the Toyota Camry. With a little cutting and modding I'm sure you can find something. Although my boy Smitty from the NELOC forum has a later model year than yours, you might have to contact him for parts advice, with a little imagination and some careful cutting you can mod Camry parts to fit.
take a look at what he has done so far..Not sure where he has gotten most of his mods, but hard work definately pays off.

Nice ride, the 97-01 models does have a better aftermarket parts than the 92-96 once. i've searched all over the net trying to find body kits for my car but with no luck finding any yet. lol i kinda wish mine was the 97-01 model since its easier to suit up and looks better too.
