Hi i have a pearl white 92 es300 after seen so many nice es' i now feel the need to work on mine. i need an opinion im thinking of painting the the headlight housing black as well as the emblems and smoking the tail light do you guys think is a good idea or the colors wouldn't really match? has anybody done this?? pics would help thnx

Munchiez

If I am correct your ES should be two tone? Imo I dont think the black housings would match with the car. Maybe if it had tinting and all white with some decent wheels to match. And smoked out tail lights is a no go. Just my 2 cents

o0o0o0o ok man thanx any mods i can do to the car that would make it look decent but still stand out??

smoked tailights only look good on
*grey
*black
*some white. not your car.

most you can do is put tints, a lip and a drop on it. could debadge it. call it a day

i have the same white 92 es300 the two tone does not go well with the black housing headlights better off trying to clear corners of the headlights maybe redo the emblems and get some rims with a nice lip and lower the car

i actually think it would look great. anything in mint condition would look good.

Lowering an ES does not make it look good IMHO. Treat it like a luxury car, not like a Honda Civic.

PS.
Some tint and maybe a good cleaning I think is all a white Car needs.

EEngineer

actually luxuries cars nowadays ride rather low now. The ES300's truck ride height screams 1990s

thnx you guys and eengenier actually the reason i wanna fix my car is because i saw your es i love what you did with it too bad mines an automatic thnx for the inspiration

pacheco308

well if you feel that lowering a luxury car is treating it like a civic then you got to be crazy i agree u should not slam the car to the floor but lowering the car to remove that gap that shows the suspension def makes the car look a lot better than stock ride height imo

I actually want to do the same as to blacking out my headlights. I think it would look nice. I have a white 95 ES300 and am going to try it once I get my windows tinted. EEngineer is inspiration for his Camry also...just sayin

selow

i actually did it it looks nice not ricey at all.... it took alot longer than expected but finally done

^^ Where are the pics?

selow

ill post the tonight

EEngineer

woo! congrats, pics or ban hammer hahaha

thanks for all the kind words, but my car is really not that good lol. theproblem with it is that the car was too beat up when i got it.
I put in way too much effort in restoring the car already...but sometimes it's hard to undo something that's been already messed up.
