    Forget Goo Gone or any other liquid sticker remover.

    Find an auto paint supply store in your area. Ask for the drill/orbital attachment that's like a giant round rubber eraser. Cuts through the remaining adhesive like nothing and doesn't damage the clear coat. Took me minutes to debadge.

    Edit: pic of the eraser added.

    And for the love of God don't use a razor to remove the emblems. Get some kind of wire.

    A few months ago someone hit me head on and totaled my quicksand 16 trd sport so I decided I definitely needed another one! Ordered at 17 trd off-road about a month ago. Finally came in last week and went straight to the shop! Got her back today and I must say I'm very happy how it's looking so far! Installed arb summit bar with arb safari snorkel, ome heavy lift kit and general grabblers x3 tires! Also ordered ARE camper shell and will be installing the prinsu cab rac and top rac once it arrives along with all the lights, arb awning, rtt and fridge! Next purchase will be sliders and rear swing out bumper. Will be a busy next few weeks!!! First pic is old tacoma before the accident

    This looks great! I'm going down a similar path. I saw an ARB bumper on a 3rd gen locally and it sure is stout.

    What size tires are those? Will you have to take the bumper off if you decide to install a winch later? Keep the pics coming, please!
