Why the Lexus style exhaust? Is that OEM?

Yes, those are 100% OE BMW M Performance accessory parts. They can be port or dealer installed.

It does look really good in black, but it also would be be a royal pain in the ass to take care of. Been there done that… twice.

I don’t know what the current Corolla looks like.
