If you're wondering if it looks properly installed, then yes. I had one on my car before I got the full TRD "CAI". The fit is tighter than the stock filter, but the seal is good. It just looks odd because of the red.

even with the stock filter you can see the white edges.
How is the filter so far? notice any difference in performance?

I noticed that my drop in helped out alot with the idle drop issue. I have the Afe dry one. But yeah, the edges are supposed to be visible. The red looks cool!
