    Well it’s been awhile- I have been busy with my truck that I wasn’t going to mod....
    I put the trd pro grill on, bilstein 5100s on the 3rd notch in the front and then I was going to leave it... buuuut, then my wife bought me some trd sema wheels, I had a flowmaster 50 series deltaflow welded on and rerouted the exhaust pipe out the side and added a dual black tip, put a k and n intake on, got some Ellis precision knobs as a gift, put some lamin-x on the fogs, and did an hid kit on the headlights. It drives great, looks great, sounds freaking amazing and I love it. Oh, and my wife and kids made me put nfab steps on it because they’re all short.

    I really like the black TRD grill with the silver lower valence, it works, especially with the blue!

    Man that looks good! Great color. Regarding your exhaust, with the side exit do you still get the exhaust smell when the back window is cracked or down? If there is one thing I would like to change about my 4 it would be the ability to have the back window down when driving without shortening my life.

    It has fixed the exhaust smell with the back window down issue.

    Is that some scratches on the rear quarter or reflections? Neighbors got the blue I'm liking that as much or slightly more than my gray. Two blues living side by side would look dumb - haha. None at the dealer when I looked anyway and it isn't a big deal to me.

    Those are the reflections of the Parking stripe. The truck was particularly shiny that day.

    I've heard this mentioned before, but I never get any exhaust smells in my cab. What's the deal??

    Even with other windows or moonroof cracked you still get fumes? Doesn't matter what combo I'm running, I just don't get the fumes.

    .

    Fake news. Once warmed up you can’t even smell it outside the vehicle. I have my rear window down all the time, never any exhaust problem.

    Ha!, Fake news??? This is not CNN...I can smell fumes when I drive with my rear window open....an whether you smell it or not the fumes are coming into the cab, it's simple aerodynamics.

    Well, if he says he smells fumes I have no reason to doubt him. There's no conspiracy here. It's just surprising, as I've never smelled a hint of anything.

    On my 2020 4Runner, just finished cleaning my headliner . One year’s worth of black sooth cleaned off.Delinately the exhaust wraps around the inside. My question is does having the exhaust pipe coming out the side make it less fumes?
