That looks better already bro honestly! I love your car man! We just gotta figure out what we can do to get those aligning correctly. I wonder if you shaved some of the top mounts down on the underside, this would give you somemore clearence to have the headlights sit back further. Hmm.. Damn I wish your car was here in my driveway so we could just go at it and tackle this son of a bitch lol!

Thanks Larry. I do have 00-02 headlights that I was going to use with the previous bumper. I was going to modify it but some local guy wanted my bumper so I sold him that one and got my current TRD front. Not sure if I want to mess with it right now. I appreciate your input though.

I wouldn't mess with it. it's one of the few 95-99 bumpers that I like, and I hardly see it in red. I usually black cars rocking the TRD kits. very nice work

one question.. what wheels are those and what size? I'd like a set for my sedan if I end up keeping it

The black sh*t on the doors/quarters/fenders need to go. Other then some other minor changes. I'm a fan!

Would love to see this car with 00-02 headlights!

I'm a fan, but would like to see it minus the black on the sides.

everything but that headlight fitment looks good, but that is WAY off... either way, the car has come a long way, just fix that and be done with it

The headlights are tinted? Then whats with that horrendous gap/fitment between them and the hood? I'd get that fixed, and I agree, I think some 02 headlights would be tits! And maybe paint the license plate mount on the bumper black so it doesn't stick out as much. Thats one think thats always bugged me with the trd front....

White tape? Even worse! Ok enough with the thread jacking, lets stay on topic. In response to those who would like to see the 00-02 style, at the moment I dont wish to modify my bumper. Maybe when I feel tempted enough I will do the swap. Im going up to the attic later to find the headlights and test fit them first to see if I like the way they'll look. Maybe Ill take a pic or two.

Took some pics after work tonight to show the OEM headlights, removed the bottom door strikes and the HID set up.

The headlights fill in those nasty gaps very well.



8000k headlights and 6000k foglights.

Thanks bro. Ill keep the headlights the way they are. All I tinted in the front is the corners so they can tie in with the bumper turn signals. My OEM headlights are still in beautiful shape so Id like to keep them that way.

Thats basically why Im leaving them alone. Oh to answer the question regarding my rims, they say "msrg" or something like that. Got them from a salvage yard so I dont have much info on them.
