    Anyone gone with carbon fiber Tacoma tailgate insert decals on a black truck? Was curious how it would look? Know it would be subtle but was curious the contrast?

    Thanks

    I think it'd look badass! I've currently got 3m chrome in there, but I've been thinking about switching it out.

    I have them and think they are great. It's not in your face carbon fiber. It's very subtle from like 20ft away it looks black Its when you get close up to it do you see the weaving. I love em

    Can you please update your post with a link to purchase. Thanks! I had bought earlier black vinyl letters from CBoy, but didn't put them on as I didn't get the time to do it, and now I can't find them. Seeing this post reminded me.

    I got the tuffskinz version from Amazon. They where about $50. In my opinion well worth it

    They do look sharp. I really like the raised, 3D look.

    I'd love to see some on a black truck.
