I would try and get the TRD wheels instead of the gas card (since gas is becoming cheap) and call it a day.

It also very unlikely that the original bumpers, or the RS1.0 bumpers were painted alongside the car. From my experience bumpers are from suppliers. So the paint may never be 100% match however these at least all painted by the suppliers and not your local shop.
I'm another for saying ask for the TRD wheels. They are ~250 each so its not that different than the gas card but IMO much worth it. The car just looks wrong with the stock wheels.
