Does it matter if it is a TRD part or a standard maintenance part (oil filter, etc)?

Thanks for the help.
Sounds like a great opportunity. However, I think you need to supply more info, i.e. which TRD parts are you considering? Also, my impression is that not all dealer supplied parts are marked up at the same rate. If your friend the manager is working with you, have him/her show you the dealer price versus their MSRP and you can compare that way.
