    And does anyone have experience in how the paint would be if one day I decide to take them off?

    If you like it go for it. The paint will not match eventually. But that could be years down the road. Depends on climate the car is in. More sun is more damage. I like the second one more.

    I personally would change the grille (either plastidip or TRD Pro grille) and then put the hood graphic. Black and chrome dont fit together in my opinion. I’d say yay

    I voted yay myself.. but to each their own. It's personal preference. I suppose it might also depend on where one lives and such... with the Sport, the raised scoop area actually can cause a bit of glare from the sun, so the vinyl decal + maybe something on the scoop too in that first pic, will help cut down on the reflections into your eyes off the hood.

    It's very liberating for the soul when you start giving less than zero f's about what other people think about your truck and your mods. If you think it looks swell, slap them stickers on and pimp walk into the store for a soda.

    I vote _ay. You can fill in the first letter yourself, because your opinion is the only one that matters.

    I like the retro ones that look like they came off of an 80s Toyota Hilux.

    No graphics for me. But I'm old / old school. Same reason I don't have any tats or piercings, whatever the hell reason that is.

    I think this is as far as I'm going with any type of graphics.

    Lots of "Old School" cars/trucks came with decals or paint schemes.

    No offense, but I don't get the tiny decals below the side mirrors. To me, that's like getting a butterfly tatoo on an ankle. However, I'm all for MAKE IT YOUR OWN! Some people do it to make it easier to find in a parking lot. Some people do it to change an issue, others do it for aesthetics. Whatever your reason, it's yours... enjoy!

    PLENTY.... The 50's was dual colors, the 60s was logos, the 70s was paint, textures, and stripes.

    well I am thinking of getting an 18 pro tomorrow an it has this on it already. In person it isn't bad but I think I would like better without. Hate to buy it then spend money to take off after paying all that money because it is already on the truck. I found another pro coming in without it on it at another week but they wont give me near the deal and want over 1k more for the truck. They sticker about the same but the one I am looking at has this in it and other has better options for the money like the led bed light. Do you all think it would be ok to run it for maybe a while with it on and then if I still think id prefer not having it getting it taken off and no issue with paint

    Shouldn’t be an issue. I’ve put on and pulled off. The only question would be the quality and ease to remove. The cheaper the product and lower the quality, the more work it will take to remove.
