Default cheapest TRD exhaust in California?

alright, need some help from SL. i just got off the phone with my local dealership, and they said they will match any other dealers pricing on the trd stuff. i am looking to pick up a trd exhaust, and they wanted 480! yeah right. anyways, it would be great to post what you paid for your TRD exhaust and intake if you are in CA and bought it from a dealer.

You could just buy it from us and save some money. It's your call.

haven't seen anything local in Cali that has been able to match trdsparks.

even when i'm able to get a pretty good discount on some parts.... hmm.. nope... trdsparks still cheaper.

where in cali are you?

Depends on what it is and if I can get them in the same box. My problem is that even with the shipping as high as it is I still lose between $15-$20 on shipping. The box is 48"X48"x7".

I don't know HOW many times I've had to mention this, but the TRD exhaust SUCKS! DOn't get it, I had to switch to HKS cuz it sounds a WHOLE lot better.. as for the intake, get Injen, and if anything were to ever go wrong, just go back to stock and take it to Toyota to get it fixed...

LOL where were you 2 months ago!?! I had a brand new exhaust unopen box for 375... local pickup no shipping... sigh....

and wah TRD does not suck, i think it sounds the best of all the current exhaust... not too loud and doesn't rasp or drone...

id prefer not to have my girlfriend look and sound like the stereotypical ricer, sorry. the angled out cansiter and the noise level really does nothing but make the car appear less than the 17k it costs. thanks for your input though.
