    I saw one of these in person a few evenings ago. They look great as the sun is going down! It was a Sport which he debadged the rear... IMHO these look great debadged. Full focus on the Tacoma logo with nothing else. And the sport quicksand looked great in person. The black step bars helped break it up.

    Got mine (SR5 DCLB) on Monday. Needs some black to break up the color, If the door handles were black I think it would be even sharper looking. So far no complaints.

    Not too hard. I sprayed a couple sec burst into a plastic lid and used a small brush to get behind the handles and put a small bit of tape where the lock is (I kept tape in after spraying since it looks more uniform and I don't use the key). Tape off and spray like you would for your emblems. Then use good quality 3M tape electrical tape behind the handles once you're finished to protect where you grab. Google "plastidip door handles" and watch the videos. There were a few and some gave better detail than others.
