TRD USA was never nearly as good as TRD Japan when it comes to sports cars.

And why would you pay TRD prices when the aftermarket has been delivering solidly for a while now?
1) You can finance the cost of TRD parts when you buy the car

2) Most TRD parts will help you maintain your factory warranty without headaches (if the parts are installed by a dealer)

3) TRD parts *should* have near oe levels of fit and finish unlike many aftermarket items

Can you guys please let us know where you're buying your bad aftermarket parts? So those of us that can't fathom blowing money on TRD can avoid those places.

TRD prices are inflated partly BECAUSE they're covered under the warranty.
