Default TRD Exhaust

This exhaust is something I saw on a 4Runner a couple years back and always like the looks of it. This is made for the Highlander, do you guys think it will fit the RX? I need an underbelly shot of the Highlander. Why don't they make this stuff for Lexus!?!

The downside...$480 is a little pricey for this finely crafted piece of stainless.

Check out this link. I don't think the picture on the linked web page is the exhaust for the Highlander. The muffler should be closer to the tip. I think the Tip is what I like the most...I'm sure it sounds great too.

BTW - this thing sells on TRD's official website for $555

I like that exhaust. A friend of mine is the assistant service manager of Toyota Dealership, I'm going to checkl the fittament. Like VaporBlue said I think the exhaust is the same, there may be some slight mounting differences but the same overall.

It's funny because the owner of the dealership who is 60+ has one of the most customized Solaras on the road all black, including the headlights, Rims, Dual TRD exhaust, and the supercharger to name a few. His dealership prides itself as being a TRD depot of sorts. If it works I'll get it installed there. I think I prefer the more oval shape of this exhaust as opposed to the RMM's, but I would be happy with either one

I am pretty sure that the Highlander is the same as the RX300 in almost everyway. The picture on the site definietly is not an exhaust for the highlander or the RX300. Here is the one I think.
