The Valor tip is nice.. but I would check local muffler shops to see what they have too. You might like a different look on yours.. then the shop can weld it on for you for $5 or $10 bucks.

I got mine from ScionSport.com:

http://scionsport.com/store/index.php

Exhaust Tip by Valor Manufacturing, Part # PTS18-52040, $38 + S&H

http://scionsport.com/store/product_...oducts_id/220?



You may also consider Partznet.com, although I have no experience with them.

Valor tip: $34.80 + S&H

Figured I'd add to this thread because 10 minutes ago I removed my stock tip. A few sprays of Liquid Wrench and tapping with a hammer and flathead made quick work of the tip.

I installed a large round/slanted tip that filled the opening nicely. I'm looking for a large square tip, but so far the ones I've seen look too small. But for now this $9 tip looks much better than stock. :D

I picked it up at a local muffler shop. The tip with weld install totalled about $50. The tip is a little more expensive than the others I saw at the shop but it had a "beefy" look to it. It also has an incription on the top that says "Silverline".

Mine came right off with a slight tap with a big screwdriver and hammer I then replaced it with a 4" chrome tip from Wal-mart auto dept $12.44
it sure beat the $79.00 price of theTRD tip at the dealership

My tip was from Walmart also. I had originally bought a few from Advanced Auto so I could decide what I liked best and return the others. Then when at Walmart I checked out their tips and found a better one for $9 or so. The comparable tip from Advanced Auto was $20.

i'll have to take some pics and post.
