    Hi,
    I've read a lot of posts how people hate the TRD pro badges under the side mirrors. I actually love them and want a set. Are there any pro owners wanting to part with them??
    Thanks

    Don't do it man... I know it's your truck, but that's ultimate poser status right there.

    It would make for a sad reflection of the owner.

    I've never understood this. People wanting to badge/label their vehicle (Tacoma or not) as something it's not. If anything, you should be taking badges off, not adding them.

    This isn't quite as bad as Cobra badges on a V6 mustang, but it's still facepalm worthy. In the end, it is your truck ... but know many will be like ...

    Get the grill it looks a lot better .... hows your truck going to look with TRD Sport on the rear side panels and TRD Pro door emblems... gonna look a tad poser-ish to me... now get Pro wheels, pro suspension, a locker diff.... MAYBE then get the emblems.. and meh, after all that, they look not that good.

    I removed mine but keeping them for the f*ck of it.

    Also removed the vinyl between the windows and painted my skid plate matte black. Looks way better now! IMO...

    Well @bobrown14 I stepped outside in the FL blazing sun just for you to snap a few pics. Just drove from NC to FL through hurricane ridden areas to visit some fam and help with the clean up here. Its a little dirty but you can get the pic.

    I'm going to! I want mine to look just like the pro. A lot of people thinks that is stupid but I'm just a teenager, I couldn't run out and trade it in for a pro!

    THIS. With as much hype as the new pro is getting, there is a chance you will stick out more than you think.

    Right leave the kid alone.
    It's his truck. Just because you don't like it/wouldn't do it to your truck doesn't mean you should bash him.

    It's a beautiful truck, but I think the badges look better because it brakes up the color. Good choice on color by the way. I love Cement
