I'm working on Camry GEN 3.5 headlights lens. So far I could not make them work, do to the size of the headlight lens. I'll try another step and see if I can make them.

I'll start with my sisters foglight (Solara gen 1) and see if I can make clear lens. I took a close look, and I seen that they have a lip on the sides. I'll update this post when I do start on them.

its easier to do gen 4.5 swap, bumper, headlights, corner lights, to gen 4.5 as well as the rear swap bumper trunk and tail light, just my 2 cents.

I'll let you know when I have a clear lens made.

BTW why did you go with 6000k? What brand bulbs did you use?

Update:

Today I started to make the clear lens for Gen 1 Solara fog lights. I took some pictures of the lens, but I'm still not finished. For projectors I plan to use Bosch mini fog lights. Here's some teaser pictures of the clear lens.

The lens are not wiped down, so they are kinda dusty.

OMG I WANT
But is there a way to make an ABS bezel to cover the unslightly welds on the back panel?
Also the reason I went 6000k on lights was cause I wanted pure white. FX Stock bulb make it look a bit amberish

Oh yes I plan on making ABS bezel with Bosch projectors. The bezel I will paint the same color as the car. This is just the beginning (1/3) there is still more to do, to where they will attractive your attention.

If I was interested in this... especially being that I am already a happy customer of youres... would you be able to fabricate a bezel without the use of a projector? The reason I am asking is because I probably will NOT go projector on my foglights, as I am very happy with the light output my 50w fog gives me now, rather, I am just looking for a clear lense but with a cover to hide all the unsightly seams/welds and what have you at the back of the projector.

without the OEM lens the light does not spread out. The fluted lens spreads the light output. Its like having the high beam on, or maybe I didn't understand your question right.

Dawgz I PMed you back.
