Is it just me, or does the backup camera look cheap?

Is there anyway to search all local dealerships for inventory or do you have to check each one individually?

I would like to go check out the 2016
How different is the new red in person?

It is a back up camera. How does it look expensive?

It for sure doesn't have different coloured lines like other Toyota backup cameras. Better than not having it though, I had to velcro a mirror to the D-pillar of my car, otherwise I can't see how close I am to cars behind me.

They are all cheap. This one though is moulded to the shape of the red body.

Maybe cheap isn't the right word. I guess I wasn't expecting it to look so...obvious? It's probably not in person though.

My Beatsonic backup cam sticks out a bit since it is on the license plate but the metal encasing at least makes it look like quality.

Side note, I like that headunit with the controls on the left side but why gloss :|

He says that they already have thicker panels. We did some search and it looks to be related with the changed suspension bolts.

I wonder why they didn't color match it? Cost?

The pic was obviously meant to make it stand out. When looking at the whole rear of the car from the proper angle (not from below with it at center frame) I doubt you will even notice it.
