So glad I bought the Hot Lava then.

I've always wondered why people seem to stress out over the side markers,but I guess your explanation makes sense. Even with that,I found for me that there were much more important upgrades than the side markers.I absolutely hate the stock tails,so those were the first thing to get switched out for me.Then came the stock wheels,which I find equally unappealing.

Received my TRD 2.0 wheels and Takeda Cold Air Intake. Just waiting for my car to come out of the bodyshop.

Excited and happy is a understatement.

Bone stock but I was running an e85 OFT tune at the time. So I'm not sure if that contributed but it definitely looked like oil starvation. I was running brand new oil too
