Can you get a shot of the rear of your car to better show your TRD emblem?

Here it is. It's an actual OEM Toyota part too.

Well, I took the OP's lead and, after installing my TRD oil cap and air filter, I displayed my TRD pride with an emblem. I went with the chrome metal one because it better matched the iM logo. It didn't quite look right level, so I went along the curve of the metal fold. Not bad!

Intake and cap.
In terms of acceleration, do you notice a difference in the TRD intake?

yes the oil cap adds 1.5 hp and reduces the weight by .5 ounce.

The intake is like a turbo. So awesome

TRD intake is a waste of money. There is no benefit besides its looks. Get Injen CAI instead, it is made for our iM, it actually makes a difference in performance and it comes with a dry filter.

Aftermarket intakes will void any factory or extended warranty. FYI

A bit more info for ya. A (US) law was passed that stops warranty claims from being dismissed just because an aftermarket part was added to your car.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnuson–Moss_Warranty_Act

Now, if they can prove that your add-on part caused the damage directly then they can deny the claim, but other than that it is a scare tactic by dealers to try and make you buy their parts.

If your dealership is telling you this then they are being dishonest.
