Re: Current Modified Hybrids and Future Modifications
Flopshot,
Please post ASAP re: TRD front springs. I've only got 1200 miles on my TCH, and I'm on my 3rd package of Dramamine (only joking, but not by much).
I would love to tighten things up all around, so I'm anxious to hear how the TRD springs in the front balance with the SE springs in the rear. FYI, I'm a life-long Audi driver, so that's my point-of view re: how a car should handle.
Thanks.

Re: Current Modified Hybrids and Future Modifications
your car looks great. I would like to get fog lights installed as well as a block heater for winter. I have a 50th anniversary blizzard pearl camry hybrid. I dont know how to post a pic but i would like to have a seat memory control and back up camera installed. I amgoing in for first service tomorrow 2500 miles and averaging 35 mpg so far.. Sorry my ideas are scattered but Im still trying to figure this forum out

Re: Current Modified Hybrids and Future Modifications
I've seen several threads with people doing different things to their hybrids (chrome handles, rims, etc...), SO I wanted to make a thread where we can see everything that was done so far and everything that you want to do.
If you have modified your hybrid please post; I love pictures!
Mine is: Black Camry Hybrid (and **** if it's not sexy! I have only spotted ONE in my city in red... Prius' [my brother owns one; so I don't need one
] rule the streets around here. They are on EVERY street. The Camry Hybrid I have found is a real head turner and fully loaded it's just unstoppable!)
Current Modifications:
None just got it
Future Modifications:
back up camera
chrome handles
chrome pillars
change the front grille
chrome rims
dvd players
spoiler (I'm obsessed with how sporty the Camry SE looks it's really stunning. I want my hybrid to look really close to it)
Don't think there is anything more...

Re: Current Modified Hybrids and Future Modifications
TSB's attached...
fyi, I've had the TSB's applied for a couple of weeks, plus they de-glazed the rotors, but the squeek has returned. I'm going to have them look at it again at my next service interval.

Re: Current Modified Hybrids and Future Modifications
I would like to post few nice mods I did on My 50th Anniversary Edition TCH. I don’t have online pictures, how can I add pictures from my computer. I reduced the size but it still asks me for www location of the pictures.

Re: Current Modified Hybrids and Future Modifications
Thanks for help wilsons66604
Now I know how to post Picture to the thread.
Below you will se how my TCH 50th An. looks like on TSW 20" Montage Rims, Johnson’s Insulatir ceramic film Tint 30% all around installed by wtsmotorsport in LA, Rear spoiler by SportWing,also Side Moldings by SportWing All season Brown Floor Mats, Toyota Remote Start, XM Radio (with Antenna Outside)
I had to wait 1 extra month to get no front license plate holes I consider this Modification, as ALL Dealers drill front bumpers in California, mine did not, just for me.
Future modes:
Fog Lights
