Alright decision time. I received the letter today from Toyota's regional office in Denver, Colorado.
I really don't have time to unpack the scanner right now, so I will just type up the options they gave me:

Option 1-

Vehicle Replacement
Will NOT replace/refund clear bra (which is funny because if I had bought it from them they would have replaced it)
Requires that I sign a statement to attest to the fact that the vehicle was not previously damaged or repaired.
I get a comparable version of the car/ options. I could wait up to 120 days to receive the replacement.
Toyota won't charge me for mileage on the faulty vehicle, but they don't tell me if I will have a car or not while I wait as long as 120 days.

Option 2-

I keep the car
Toyota will fix the damaged area through their shop (it does not detail which of the two repair options I could do)
Toyota will give me a Toyota extracare Platinum 7yr/ 100,000 mile warranty with a $0 deductible.
Toyota will give me $500 Toyota giftcard (not sure what I would even spend that on?)

The letter says that I have 30 days to make a decision and get things rolling. I am still leaning towards vehicle replacement, but I don't know some of the details such as what I will be driving for potentially 4 months while I wait for a car?
