    Looks good. Did you just tape it over the existing 'Yota?

    Na, it came with a bracket and Miller puts screws on the back that you thread through existing holes, you take off the "t" with a flathead by prying. It pops right off.

    I think I need to paint the backplate black, so it isn't so noticeable.

    I dont think it would be as sturdy, that is where the whole thing attaches to. And from about 3 feet away you cant see it.

    I had toyed around with the thought of getting some black screen and putting it behind the emblem... that should mask the plastic a bit.

    Here is the ss of the georgia/greenbay design

    I came up with a solution to cover up all of the things I wanted covered.

    I saw the Yankee emblem. Could you make a Miami Dolphin Emblem? Just the sun and dolphin chromed the same general size at current toyota emblem. I did some searches and found nothing and then came across this thread!:D

    I'm going to redo a few things on the front of my truck in about 2 weeks, one of which is installing the Liberated Racing emblem. I'll take pics and shoot them over to you when it's all done.
