I'm still under warranty and know the TRD parts won't void that- especially if the dealer orders and installs them on the first service. I also know that the TRD upgrades on my MR2 have become a bit rare, and anticipate that this may be the case for the FRS in the future- not that it really matters to me, but the availability now may not last.

Thanks in advance
$1,400.00 is over priced shop around on the internet.

-Very good quality

-Not too extreme for most people (exhaust pleasant rumble not too loud, suspension stiffer but not uncomfortably so)
-Legal in street classes if you are going to autox the car (suspension)
- May add instead of lower resale value on car

Many cheaper (and some not cheap) aftermarket alternatives miss on one or more of the above points.

^ Agree 100%.

TRD parts warranty after the purchase of a new Toyota/Scion.
