Here's the TRD exhaust I got from a member on here. Needless to say I don't like chrome so I lightly scuffed the areas that may be seen from behind and painted it with high heat ceramic VHT Black pearl. Then I got a nice blue spray can of some toyota blue touch up and painted the TRD the blue. I think it came out awesome!! Always good to try something different. It's not perfect but oh well. :P

The dealership uses convenience store fuel..no way I'm putting that crap in my new car. I use Shell or Sunoco.

Makes sense. Congrats on the new ride. I don't know of anyone else that got their car that fresh out of the wrapper. Nice!

Yeh it was worth the effort,which wasn't much, just to tell them, not ask, tell them what i wanted. Worked out for them and me.

INstalled the TRD Quick Shifter, WOW, this is a funner shifting experience..a little notchy sometimes but still smooth. Highly recommended!!
Looks like the exhaust may go on tomorrow but I'm doing a little mod first.

So an update. After one week of ownership as of today I am having a blast in this car! The exhaust is installed I wanted to get the Greedy Supreme which is slightly quieter than the TRD and half the price, I got this TRD for $300 used and since this TRD exhaust doesn't come with quad tips I got a little innovative to separate myself from the rest :P but someone could of done this somewhere on here. So I took some stainless steel, formed and welded it to the inside of the tip. It took about 5 hours to fabricate and cut and weld and repaint the new metal and I think it looks great!! Opinions may differ but this is my car..lol. I was going to get a new Quad tip bumper, buy quad tips and all that but this was a fun project and I saved a good amount of money.
