METAL13

Recommended Posts

So i had a 2000 Camry before hand so this was a bit of a jump in luxury for me, as this is my third car at age 20.

So lets begin . . . Current Changes:

Exterior

  • HID Kit Low Beam: H11 35W 6000K
  • HID Kit High Beam: HB3 55W 6000K
  • 5 SMD LED bulbs in parking lights & numberplate lights
  • Genuine Rear Wing painted to body colour (Diamond White)
Interior
  • 5 SMD LED Bulbs in the Map Lights & Door lights.
  • SMD LED Strips (30cm) 1 x Strip for foot well lighting Front & Rear wired to the dome light and also ACC Power (ON/OFF/ON Switch)
  • SMD LED Strips (30cm) 2 x Strips for Boot Light Spliced onto existing light wiring harness.
  • 48 SMD LED Interior Dome Light
  • Dash Mat.
  • Genuine Aurion Floor Mats.
  • Windscreen mounted Radar Detector (legal in WA).

Audio

  • Yet to be done
Wheels & Tyres
  • 18" x 8" B.BOSS Eleanor Wheels custom powder coated to gloss black.
  • Tire Brand: Sonar Model: Fantastic Drive Size: 235/40 R18 (Pumped @ 40psi) *Note: These Tires are super quiet no extra road noise compared to the stock Wheel / Tire mix and is a very smooth ride.
  • Anti theft wheel nuts (it might slow the thieves down :unsure:)

Hi and welcome :) The B Boss wheels work powder coated in black, and black always looks good on white :D Love the interior lighting too, those SMD's make the world of difference.. I really really need to try and do some footwell lighting in the Camry.

What's next for the Aurion?

Next is the sound system, the stock one is great and i have no complaints hence why its the last thing to be done (for now). But i need the funds to support my ideas...and well i aint got them now hahaha!:whistling:

Lookin good mate with the new rims :clap: , Will look way better when you drop it.

Are you 100% sure they are powder coated and not painted? Powder coating dosn't bloom or see throught. They are a very sexy rim though.

1) IT WILL STAY STANDARD RIDE HEIGHT !!!!! I will not lower it at all, hate lowered cars because i sometimes think they are 4x4 vehicles and scraping is just a bitch in perth lol :P

2) I'm 100% sure they are powder coated (doesn't have the "painted" look at all.) and i asked for it to be done that way / was told that is was done that way @ a cost of $100.00 per rim from B.BOSS Company (all covered under warranty then :D)

3) Sound system is fine... puts out the right amount of bass to clarity for my taste in music. Yes its not the top end of the spectrum but for now it plays a CD and it don't skip I'm happy !

( however i do lust for my iPod and BT connectivity !)

Great looking black wheels you got there and awesome interior lighting as well :clap:

Did you wire the footwell lighting yourself?

Yes all wired by myself (soldered and taped up tight with clips etc for quick release when more tampering is required)

All helped from the TOCAU Forums, Its members && DJKOR <-- I could sex him and I'm straight :blink: !?!

Looking good there mate,shame you hate lowered cars. :(

btw try and resize your pics,they are massive,i'm reducing by 75% just to see the whole pic.

I would resize them but i am to lazy to try and do that <-- This fella hates Photoshop most days (I really need to find some automated software on the interwebz :whistling:)
