Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior Stock exhaust and body kit...

I sent my body kit to get painted today and i'm a little worried about my stock gt exhuast. is it going to leave marks on my newly painted bumper since the muffler tip isn't as far out as the bumper? I won't be able to buy the TRD exhaust for some time...what should i do?

get an exhaust tip till you can get a full exhaust...

go to a muffler shop they can extend the tip

It'll be fine.

what kind of bodykit? it should be fine though...

Extended tips/exhausts with body kits are merely for looks.

^ bull shit the exhaust burns the paint on the Bumper.

trust me i know that the hardway its a mUST TO HAVE

thanks guys...how much for an extension? I have a kaminari kit. Or should i go with the TRD exhaust for like 530 shipped?

dont buy trd for 530.. juss buy it used for like 300 or so

So if i keep my stock exhaust on with the kit for about 2 months is it going to do anything to my bumber?

Bump

Nothing will happen to your bumper. The stock exhaust will just look bad with your kit.

if ur stock exhaust is hittin the bumper, then you have to worry, if its not then dont worry a bout it, think of this way, wen you have ur stock bumper you dont see no black shit on it, right thats becuase ur exhaust is not touching ur bumper, so if it dont touch it ur fine

not look bad, just can't see it...

If it's near your bumper, crawl underneath, pull it down a bit, and stick a small rock in the rubber mount. That will lower it a bit for now. Kinda ghetto, no REALLY ghetto.

thanks guys. I talked to the body shop today the people that are paintin my kit and they said it will be fine as long as it doesn't touch the bumper and that i pay attention to it. So if it starts to stain just wipe it off now and then
