Installed JDM Exhaust Tip Photos
So I bought my car exactly one month ago, and immediately went about ricing it out. I ordered a set of JDM, or everywhere except USDM exhaust tips from Japanparts.com on 9/18, and they just arrived on my doorstep earlier this afternoon. I haven't seen anyone do anything more than completed install pictures, so here you go.
![]() Next to a 2 liter soda, for size comparison. ![]() One side arrived with a couple of dents in it. It's not a huge deal since they're not visible while on the car, but still rather annoying considering the price. I've contacted Japanparts.com to see how they respond. ![]() Stock vs JDM. ![]() Another shot of stock vs JDM. The dinky stock ones look even smaller next to the JDM tips. ![]() One side installed on the car, for comparison vs stock. ![]() Installed. ![]() Another installed shot. ![]() Both sides installed. The tips just bolt on, so the entire thing takes like 5 minutes, if that. I spent more time uploading photos that I did putting them on. In any case, I'm happy with the result, minus the dents, and I think they're easily worth the upgrade if you don't plan on installing an aftermarket exhaust. |

Looks great. I did the same thing. The USDM tips are definitely laughable.

Toyota should be embarrassed for themselves for for putting those stock tips on this car.

I have these on right now. no real sound difference. If you get within 4 feet of them you can hear a slight difference if your listening for it, but truthfully it basically just a upgraded look with no sound change.

Yea, basically just wanted a better look while avoiding too loud of a noise and keeping away any chance of the dealer voiding any part of my warranty. I know the chances are slim with a cat back, but still don't want to deal with it if i can still get the look.
