It cleaned up nicely. I wouldn't say that's the same car I saw. Next time you go to Manila, see if you can pawn your US spec headlights and bumpers for Euro spec headlights and bumpers. A few people there think US spec is the way to go. I prefer the round Euro lights that are commonly available there over the rectangular Euro lights. I believe the round Euro lights came on the lower end models and the rectangular Euro lights came on the higher end models (230E/CE/TE, 280/C/T, 280E/CE/TE).

Same here Sixto. Much prefer the round euro lights to Mike's rectangular ones. They are still carrying a premium over there though. My buddy found a set but they want P15k for those euro lights, that is used.
Shipping the bumpers would cost a lot. Learned that when I brought over the GVR4 bumpers.
So I'll be content with the eruolights if my buddy finds a set for a good price.

Really? Call me weird, but I prefer the bundt cake wheels.

It'd be nice to have 'em in chrome, though...but that's serious $$...

Very nice looking wagon!!

Thanks everyone. Jassz, yours have a better paint though.
82300td, the 5" chrome tip is next on the upgrade list.

Here's what I did...

My driver's rear reverse light was smashed in when I bought the car. I carefully removed it in it's entirety. I went to Midas, picked out a squared-off chrome exhaust tip and had them weld it on to the tailpipe. It doesn't fit EXACTLY up into the recess where the reverse light was, but sits just a bit lower. It keeps the rear bumper cleaner by extending out the exhaust outlet. I'd like to think it looks kind of cool, too.

Can you post a picture of that shawnster? Does this mean you have no back up lights? Or only one side?
