Just spoke to another guy there and he actually told me they made these awhile back and only will fit the supras, and some trucks nothing for gs/is. oh well does anyone know where i can get a chrome oil cap that works, otherwise i guess it's TRD.

TRD USA actually makes a polished one. I just found it a couple of days ago and am trying to find out more info from Steve.

The only problem is I found a place that sells other "branded" ones that looks just like it. I don;t know if TRD OEMed it from somewhere else. For example:
