If that is the case I hope they make a newer kit for the '17+ MYs.

IIRC the TRD Intake was never a JDM part to begin with, and only have a red drop in filter option.

TRD USA always seem to have a completely different line of products.

TRD air intake is a US TRD thing. Japanese guys never have them. Oem design is not gonna take off that sound tube, remember TRD sound changer?

That being said I have the us TRD intake & love it. 😆

I don't think so, it will just be less timeless as the original.

Yeah, was unawares...so, waiting to see if the old kit fits, or a new one is made I guess.

It does look a bit bigger, yeah.

That TOMS kit looks great. I'm starting to warm up to the refresh. I can't wait to test drive one and compare.

I personally do not like the tom's kit as much as the toyota options because it keeps the trapezoidal grille versus the other two who try to make it a hexagon.
