Default Possible ES Mod? (caution big pics)

TRD is pretty involved down under... The ES's sister Camry has a big brother named the Aurion.

More than anything I thought this was a neat pic of a 2GR-FE engine that will smoke a 2GR-FS engine all day long, but it would have been neat to import some parts from down under to hop up the Clamry.

They would. They look like the tips on the LS and Acura TL.

Absolutely! Looks very much like TL, even including that spoiler.
