Almost all of their new stuff is just re-branded, over-priced components from existing aftermarket companies that is more street performance and appearance than the older stuff, which was actually intended to race. Hence the 'R' in the name.

Personally I will research what comes out before making any decisions, and will likely be making several of my own components for the car.
TRD USA SUCKS.

There are zillion aftermarket brands out there. I'm not going to get TRD accessory.
