Notice the chrome bezel around the grille, and the chrome toyota emblem?
What is the best/easiest/most efficient way to black these out? Remove them and paint them? Mask it off and paint them? Plastidip?
I always want to black out the 'Camry', 'Toyota' and 'LE' emblems on the trunk as well.
My main question is since I don't like the chrome on my windows and I am getting visors what are my option. Is it common to just put the clip ins and leave the chrome or do what i have been reading which is to black out your chrome? If i put the 3m typed style visors do i go right on top of the chrome or not and if not how do i go about blacking that out? Which brand 3m stick on visors recommended for the darkest color and slickest look?

I was at Home Depot and came across a can of Plasti-Dip so I figured I will get it and try blacking out my rear emblem. I remember recently seeing someone discuss how to remove this so it could be painted. I used to search using like 10 dif keyword combo's and found nothing.

View 1 RepliesI am looking to black out my front and rear Toyota emblem/badges. I would like to get matte black. I've seen a few 2012 Camry's with it, but am not having any luck finding them online.
View 14 RepliesI just bought a new 2015 and I've been thinking about blacking out the emblems.
Out of the photos below, which include stock and my "edited" ones, what looks best? I also considered possibly replacing the front grille with a custom one instead of blacking out.
I have been looking around online for a chrome grille replacement for my 2010 SE Camry. Problem is every site I visit and 90% of the grilles on ebay only sell grilles that fit the LE or XLE model. They all say "Does not fit Hybrid or SE model" however they look the same size in pictures. Are the LE and SE Grilles really not interchangeable for 2010? Here is an example of one I am looking at:

Water is leaking into my Sienna van from the side curtain airbag emblem. I called Toyota and was told they've never encountered this issue.
View 1 RepliesMy car came stock with the LED strip on the grill and was wondering if there's a way to keep the lights from dimming when the headlights are on?
Noticed that with the stock ones but they get dimmer when you're headlights are on. I want to keep a constant brightness.
Car's an '05 SE 4 cyl. Camry. The silicone strip on the passenger's side door chrome trim is coming off, and I was wondering what my options are for fixing this? Can I somehow push it back into place and have it stay there? Is it torn or simply coming off? Is it purely aesthetic or does it serve any other purpose?

View 6 RepliesHow you would apply Plasti-Dip to your grille. I see it is a rubberized coating according to their website. I also see that some of you have used it and I have seen the recent pictures that display the before and after. My question to you is, are you actually dipping the grille in the Plasti-Dip or spraying it on?
View 10 RepliesCan't find out how to remove the driver side front bumper grille. I could not see any screws or tabs holding it in. I'm hoping it can be removed without taking off the entire front bumper.
View 5 RepliesAfter towing my jeep 4 hours round trip for an offroading day, I noticed a jingling/rattling noise from my grille area. It is less audible from above (hood open), to my surprise. Everything works fine still, including the fan kicking on while pulling a hill as expected.
The only related thing I can think of is that I changed my belt before this trip because the old one squealed when it accelerated the fan and when it held full speed (2000+rpm fan speed). The new gatorback belt did not squeal at all. Could I have hurt the tensioner by pulling the belt too hard to remove it? I used the method of pulling the belt up on the passenger side of the alternator to get it off, and to put the new one on.
I notice the belt tensioner moves a bit at probably 20-30 hz, kinda dancing around. I don't know if it did that before.
My Platinum has 23000 miles now and is a little over a year old. Lots of small problems so far but Ford too care of everything on warranty.
Now I discovered 2 small bubbles on the grille and so not like that. Also the rear defrost does not turn on. Neither by pushing the button on the console or the touch screen one. It does not activate - no indicator turns on nor does it defrost.
For once a week at least I got a grinding noise/vibration from the front power train. Ford can't find any issues and it never does it when they test drive.
i know the 05-07 grille badge is 9 inch the 08-11 is also 9 inch and the 11 up is 12 inch
wondered if there was a ford oval that was between the 9 and the 12 inch
