Then you would have to make a very tiny one to stick on the corner of the dash of the one on the corner of your dash to blow everyone's mind.

Picked mine up last year when my wife surprised me with a trip to Vegas to celebrate my 40th birthday. Definitely more accurate than the Hot Wheels version. It isn't bad considering it sells for about $6. We also bought it at CVS.

Probably too expensive to two tone them to match would be my guess.

Bought one at my Toyota dealership last week. They had a display case of four colors: raven, whiteout, red, and lot lava. Slightly higher at $8.99 but better that driving to every CVS in town. Amazon also sells them online also.

Pretty nice metal model for $5.99. Fog lights, red tails and chrome full-size tips as standard equipment! Sadly, they only had one.
You lucky dog you... All my wife ever brings me home from CVS is my medication!!
Nice find! Thanks for the heads up.. I was there this morning but did not see any.

Haven't gotten the Turbo installed, but we've had a test fit of the JATO and about ready to go...


(Hmm, looks like I need to work on that door alignment a bit as well)
