I've already taken it back to Toyota and they refused a warranty claim, even after winding up my coils and cleaning my wheel arches. They quoted me $1700AUD + fitting for the replacement part (1 axle) and they said it would take four weeks for the part to come out of Japan. Ahhhh thanks... But no thanks Toyota. I just ordered the 600hp rated axles from the drive shaft shop based on their recommendation. I hope they are strong enough. Seems our cars don't like our low after all.

axle angle at my ride height is pretty bad. i wouldn't recommend driving it hard or drifting unless you count on replacing axles. going to wait and see who comes out with a good solution.

I just recently took off my HTAuto rear spats that I had on with my mud flaps. The fitment was great with those, except I had to improvise how to get a plastic clip in the hole closest to the wheel well since there was so much material to go through. Used a plastic drywall screw sleeve and 3M double sided tape, but it still looked good. I've got some pictures of how it fit in my build thread (Not much of a "build" in my thread though )
