Hard to get a solid picture with a phone, but you get the idea.

2 inches. My prototype was at 4 but it scraped on lots of stuff. I wanted to provide ground clearance acceptable for daily driving

Did you have the strakes going below the forward flat section (before the kink)?

No. The issue was driveways and speed bumps

Thank you for that by the way. Clears everything with a little finesse. Perfect solution for a car that will be both road and track.

It fits the T1R which is very similar.

im guessing this will fit the trd exhaust right? Also about ground clearance, these sit higher than some exhaust mufflers correct? So i shouldn't worry about scraping since im only lowered about an inch and a half from my swift springs.

I haven't test fit with a Trd exhaust yet, but probably. There hasn't been anyone with ground clearance issues, correct.
