    I got a pair of Aluminum TRD emblems and put them on the truck this morning. I wanted to get all of your opinions on what you thought. Bare in mind that I am either going to A) Black out all the emblems on the truck... Or B) Remove them all together. I personally think the new emblems clash a little with the Chrome Tacoma door emblems but it is no secret that I hate chrome.

    Traded the 2015 TRD Pro 6spd Supercharged on a PowerWagon and could not be happier. My 2011 Tacoma with the TX Baja package (Added by me) is still treating me great. My 1985 Toyota never skips a beat.
    they do clash.. :D

    but i think i would like them minus the chrome emblems

    Sorry, not my cup of tea where you have it placed. I'd like it if you debadged the tailgate and put on in the lower right corner of the tailgate.

    I think the blacked out emblems would look good on the white truck. The red on the new one sorta complements the red on the back logo.

    I can still do that. I didn't press them on yet. They are just barely stuck. I thought about putting one on the grill and one on the tail gate but the one I put on the grill took away from the clean look.

    Think it looked better with out. That saying they clash with the door emblems.

    I don't know if it's the location or the color but they just don't seem to mesh well right there. Might look better in black or white. You could paint the truck red, remove the Tacoma emblems on the door and plaice the aluminum TRD emblems there.

    Haha... If I didn't want to hear it I wouldn't have asked for opinions :)

    I agree they definitely would. Unfortunately I don't think plate bumpers are in the near future.

    maybe put on the door above the taco emblem; similar to power stroke emblem on f250. I like your truck!

    Settled on it. Much better placement now that the emblems are black. I personally like it much more now.

    Don't wanna hijack your thread or anything, but DAM I'm loving that blacked out grille on the white, was thinking about doing that to my chrome but didn't know how it would look! Great!
