My "low 'n' slow" toyota tacoma (hi-lux) 100_1737

here is my finished metal exhaust, lol, after some adjustments, its done! (and oh yeah, its straight through, no cat, and no muffler, totaly illegal) it follows the street tuner truck theme, lol
My "low 'n' slow" toyota tacoma (hi-lux) 100_1730

here is my custom exhaust tip!
My "low 'n' slow" toyota tacoma (hi-lux) 100_1731

My "low 'n' slow" toyota tacoma (hi-lux) 100_1735

My "low 'n' slow" toyota tacoma (hi-lux) 100_1734
