Lol yeah it does look like it ... you should have seen it when I had my tow hook on ... From far away you couldn't tell it wasn't another exhaust tip

Oh how I do wish I had bought the TRD rims when I bought the car. I absolutely love those rims now. They just make the car look that much better. I'll be getting them next year for sure.

Yeah they don't look like anything else out there ... I would also recommend wider tires then what they come with or else its curb rash hell for them ... I've had mine refurbished twice so far & I'm planning on running wider tires when its time to change ... They say 235 is good enough but I'm going for 245 just to tuck the lip in a bit to help with the curbs lol I suck at parking

Lol yeah I know I have 16k on mine so it'll be a while b4 I can change tires ... Thinking of either hankook or falken 245/35/19 ... I have until my peace of mind warranty runs out (rim repair covered for 2-3 years can't remember ) to either get better at parking or get wider tires so I'll go with tires just bc that half inch more of rubber will be better for traction anyway
