M44TXY not sure the only pic i have is this 1
i jus wanna make it look better
[Image: IMG00137-20100125-1755.jpg]

Not sure mate, the only way to really find out if its one of the ones that had the chrome under the paint is to scrape a bit of the dirt/paint off the tailpipe with a stanley blade, if it has got the chrome under the paint use a bit of fine wire wool and Autosol polish to remove the paint/dirt?

But with it being a 2001 model?? it might be just the standard tailpipe? A lot of the older sport models came with a nice shiny chrome end cap and some of the newer models had a black painted tailpipe tip, that could be cleaned off to show a nice chrome finish, but more seemed to come with just a standard looking tip with no chrome under the paint or a chrome tip, our 02 plate is200 had the chrome tip that was painted over :thumbup1:

i know i remember, i would have put mine in the dishwasher and then given it an autosol before puttin it on the 300, tried for ages to get it off, took the screw all the way out and all I could do was get it to rotate a bit, but not all the way off Sad

Measure the tail pipe and buy a chrome tailpipe for it to fit over they are really cheap if you dont buy a Lexus part.
Shame about the boot having a crease as your car looks in very good shape otherwise.:thumbup1:

Did you reset the ECU when putting the K&N in ? It can help speed up the re-learning process regarding air/fuel etc.

Looking good matey, glad it's coming along so nicely. Strange as your car is definitely a facelift like mine, but that exhaust tip doesn't look like a chrome one........maybe it's been replaced at some point? Either way best to do what bandit said and scrape away the rubbish on top to see what's underneath.
