    As long as you pass emissions you'll be okay. My whole exhaust system is painted black so it looks stock anyways.

    the muffler/anything after the catalic converter does not affect smog anyways. I installed a TRD axleback on a 98 before and I can tell you for sure that the hangers are different. The flange piping look like it'll bolt up but I don't think the tip would match the tip cutout on the bumper

    If you have a welder, new hangers or shortening the exhaust to fit would be no problem.
