I accidentally found the TRD parts on aliexpress under the name T Style. I quickly ordered them and waited a few weeks for them to be made then a week to ship. (the prices went up since then)

The fitment is “good enough” haha I didn’t expect it to fit as well as the 22k kit since I spent 3k on everything. There are gaps I need to fill in though. If someone did cutting I’m sure they can get their fitment better than mine. The parts also didn’t come with any screws or clips so you have to figure that out.

I can ask them for a discount for anyone interested in getting the TRD look for cheap but keep in mind the fitment isn't perfect.

update:
after doing some photoshop to complete the TRD look having black rims definitely makes it look better

it looks like the prices are slowly going up or maybe thats just for ebay. EPR was the company that sold me them on aliexpress but keep in mind it takes two weeks to build before they can ship.

The rear splats and side skirts for sure are worth it for the money so just get them from EPR. The side skirts has a slight gap but should be easier to fix compared to front splitter gaps.

The spoiler just get Rexpeed or Seibon.

The side garnish is kind of mixed, for me the driver side was perfect but the passenger side wasn't that great. Depending on your fitment tolerance these should be good enough otherwise fork out the 4k for TRD

The front splitter has a lot of gaps on the side so hopefully someone else can make them for better fitment (maybe Rexpeed). I also recommend just getting Seibon MB-Style and Carbon Fiber canards

I went for a drive after filling up the gaps and eventually realized the car is more stable at high speeds. I guess the marketing was real. The front splitter probably acts as a Canard (although a canard looks better). They don't really show how much wider the front splitters are compared to OEM stock since it doesn't look that great

Here's a photoshop of what I plan on adding onto the current TRD design
  • Varis Hood
  • Varis Diffuser
  • Varis Canard
  • Powder Coat black rims (eventually black Titan 7 T-S5)
  • maybe A91 Carbon Fiber stripe

Is there such a thing as too much carbon fiber?

Lol you really just spent 3k on aliexpress? Personally I think any more than $2000 for this whole kit is way too much. It’s a replica that required no R&D. Not sure what’s up with knock off companies charging 5x the cost for the supra that they are for the same parts on other platforms.... oh Well, it looks good from far lol!

I think it's becoming a thing.
"because supra equals cost more"
we even see this for legit products not just knock offs. There are BMW products that's been on the market for a long time suddenly is being rebranded as a (price increased) Supra product

I have to say it looks pretty nice
If you can get some nice wheels then your Supra will look killer!

I just realized the rear is just spats and not a whole diffuser. I was hoping that whole rear piece was carbon.

I went for Te37 myself as it’s my favorite wheel and my rx7 has them as well. But you can’t go wrong with anything from rays or advan!
