How can I make my corners clear on an 88 Camry?

I really want to get rid of that nasty orange. I could use some sort of tape that blends with the clear... Does anyone have any suggestions?

You need to actually buy replacement lenses.

you could open up the unit and see if you can remove the orange. That's waht I did to my tail lights. Put them in an oven and double hceck every 5 minutes, evenutally you'll be able to pry it open. Then remove the ornage part, and put ina clear material in that shape.

You'll have to buy new lights.

glue rice to your headlights. Will cover up the orange and will look white like the rest of the light.

Exactly - what's the point? The car can't be worth more than a few hundred bucks anyway, so why bother with such things?

I agree.

Fixing up a car that old would be like putting clothes on a garbage can.

CLEAR clothes, mind you!

Perhaps this guy doesn't have a lot of money to pick up a new car. He just wants to put something on that looks nice to him. I'd hit up ebay and if that doesn't work find some Camry or Toyota forums and see if they can point you in the right direction.

 

[Rufio]

seriously though - take the lights off and try and take out that part....

if your car is that old, the other lights may be "blurry". if you get brand new clear corners, they won't match.

my friend took the orange part out of his lights and it was real easy.

wash it and wax it and clean the interior and it will probably look better than most student cars

As would I.

 

[gnuel3]

Yeah, the paint is amazingly exceptional. It's super shiny and looks awesome, but the bumpers are all whitish and nasty...
