    They look really nice when they're painted, but the only place I've been able to find spray paint for this color is about $20 per can. Plus there is no guarantee that it will match if your car has been repainted.

    Yeah I'm planning on painting those, the mirrors, and maybe the door handles, but none of that until I paint the rest of the car a diffeent color :D
    And yes, |-Goku-|the rotors are the next thing to go on lol.
    You can see in that last picture I need a new fender liner, too :(

    p.s. Thanks go out to Hummer for this... he gave me the mudflaps, he told me ahead of time that the fronts were brand new, and the rears were tore up, and they were! lol

    Not bad at all. Why would you paint the car a different color? You dont see many corollas that color and its kinda unique imo.


    One other thing you should tape off the reverse light and match the center tail to the red-out you did on your outter taillights. It would look alot nicer. (sorry im one of those dicks who points out little things like that) :D

    I actually did do that, but the flash on my camera made it look weird lol. Don't worry I notice little shit like that :) It doesn't look like that in person, if you look at my sig that's what it actually looks like. :D

    I want to paint it because the paint on the roof isn't that good anymore, and the trunk is bad now because I'm stupid. I debadged the trunk = fail.
    Tax money comes, I'm droppin it no worries there.

    Well, to me it looks the same in the sig... like the outer light is a lot brighter/redder?

    Anyways, I've never had the mudflaps, don't want them, but how well do they keep the mess off of the side of the car?? Cause I sure get a lot of mess there LOL :D

    They work really well in the snow. They keep the snow and salt off the rocker panels. My accord has rubber mudflaps that are very nice quality. Absolutely no rust around the fenders or front of the rockers :)

    So yes they do serve a good purpose in winter conditions.

    Well my car had a bunch of crap on it already when I put them on... So I'll see if they work or not... Oh and my sig pic is different than I thought it was, in that one the light is on in there, so that makes it look brighter lol. I know I can find a good pic without the flash making it look funny.

    Don't paint your car a different color. Its unique. Since I did the 02 conversion, I think I'm the only person with the 02 front bumper and the Twilight blue pearl paint.

    Yeah, if only they had designed the side of the car better (not curving under but smooth/flush), then there wouldn't be a problem lol.

    I actually have been thinking about it... I mght just get it painted the same color again, but either way it needs a new paint job.

    Yeah, I think mine was painted before I had it painted. Because of the high amount of metallic in the paint, you need to get a good paint job. No one stage paint job
