Gas shock bracing isn't anything new, TRD, STi, etc have been making and selling these for a variety of cars over the years. The concept is interesting for sure, and while it does provide an interesting rigidity curve based of off the speed of chassis movement, its also adding cost and complexity in a place where it really isn't necessary. Would make for good bling factor though.

I would feel the same way.

the price may justify the thousands of dollars worth of R&D. Looks beneficial

I wouldn't be surprised if they will offer all this on a Special Edition TRD model for 2022.

Yep, it's called wax. Technically, a waxed car is more slippery than an unwaxed car, so therefore it is more aerodynamically stable. ?

I think these should be stock part or at least offered as an option.
