I just ordered the Gibson intercooled dual walled stainless (slash cut) exhaust tip. 2.5" inlet X 4" out X 8" (clap-on). I thougt it looked nicer then OEM for less.

Nice, I have the OEM tip that was installed at the port...

 

That looks good! Think I will get me one too. WOW $74 bucks seems kind if pricey?

Thinking about getting me a K&N filter drop in as well--$48 on amazon as well

 

K&N filters let too much dirt into the engine in my opnion. Also, don't over oil it, it can cause the mass air flow sensor to go bad. Not worth fooling around with it in my opinion. I would stick with the factory filter...

 

Chrome exhaust tip isn't standard on a ++$58K vehicle?

 

No, it's not standard...

 

The OEM is $85 and is a good tip that will hold up for many years. I had it on my T4R until I put a Magnaflow cat-back on (Great system). What I like about the Gibson tip is it has a little bigger outlet diameter (3.5" vs 4") and it has a slash cut, like the actual tail pipe. Also being intercooled will keep it from having to be polished often and keeps heat from the bumper.

I will get the K&N also (great price). The K&N proved (analysis) to filter as good as the OEM on my T4R. The main reason I use an oiled air filter is because they are a lifetime filter that filters as good as OEM. I’m not concerned about it making HP. The most important thing about using it is to know how to re-oil it. Just damp the filter with a paper towel.

NEVER chrome only stainless and it is an accessory ($85).

What I will never buy are the OEM all weather mats, just ordered the Husky Weatherbeaters.

Wow!

 

That was my feedback to lexus
$58K car with Yaris exhaust tip

 

Sorry Koz, I meant stainless steel.

How does Husky compare to Weathertech floormats?

 

LOL, Yaris exhaust tip!

 

From what I've been able read (from reviews) between the two mats is that they are about the same as far as quality, fit and color match. I have the Weathertechs (WT) in my IS and they are way better then the POS OEM all-weather mats (which wore a hole is less than one year). The reason I went with the Husky Weatherbeaters is because many say they are just as good as the WT and there are no holes for anchors and they cover a little more area then the WTs. Also the Husky mats are more reasonably priced. You can get the front and back liners for approx $113. I paid almost that for just the fronts WTs.
