The stock pipe is 2 1/4" after you remove the stock tips. The tips I have on it are 3 3/4".

Still better than stock but if I were to buy again, I'd look for 7 inch tips instead of 9.

I didn't have any issue with the screws, they don't need to be torqued too strongly. As for length, yeah they can be tough to even out. But this was just a temporary measure until I can get a new exhaust. Going to get one from Accelerated Performance next Sat.

Yup Im with you. I'll probably be going with the TRD exhaust, but this was a great quick fix till then.

Here you go. They screw on with the same bolt from the stock tips.

They look so much better! They should have kept it like that size but make it so it wont stick out as much for the usdm.

Thank you. Japanparts.com has them. Ordered on a Sunday night and got them Monday morning of the next week. So 7.5 days. I've been buying parts from them for 8 years and their shipping times/costs have improved over the years. Also been importing through Carson Toyota for several years but they aren't as fast or cheap but do price match sometimes.
