    GVWR is the weight of the car minus passengers and cargo, even says it on the vin sticker.

    Well the curb weight of the corolla is 2,415 with all the fluids and everything.

    Painted the inside of the lights like gold had mentioned, and put a light tint on the custom outer lights. Looks much better.
    Here's the inside where the black paint is:

    Masked off the turn signal again for the tint:

    wow, sorry Mack, that's totally not what I meant to paint!

    I meant this part, the outer line of the lens.

    Yeah, the "BMW" spoilers ain't got nothing on a real TRD spoiler!

    Looks like yours has a little gap on the end there?

    And never mind about the tail lights :rolleyes:

    Kinda but it's fixed. I only had one piece of 3M tape on there to see how it looked. It looked great, so I took it off, painted it proper and put it on nicely.

    Yep, definitely looks good. I don't even think you should paint it. Just install rear TRD lips and a window tint and you are set!

    lol, that pic never gets old.

    And I agree, the tail lights look like a good match for each other now! And to think of how they started!! You'd never be able to guess those were all ricer white originally.

    They're actually still not done, if you look closely you can see the outside isn't shiny, I need to put a coat or two of clear on there, the smoke stuff only has a satin finish.

    Go to the 8th gen thread, it's explained there. And I don't support the replicating of TRD parts. I was kinda in support of it for a bit, but no. lol
