Your pipes are not big enough, you should flex them a little more. Also, more tattoos and a tank top should solve this. :lol:

They are the same thing, just rebranded so dealerships can offer them as a "Toyota" part. It's also the way they should offer the car from factory IMO.

Here's mine on TRD springs and 235/40 Indy 500. The tires close the gap by another 4mm because of their size. It also give 4mm of added ground clearance which is VERY useful for a DD.
