    Thanks for posting the feedback. Will use 3m adhesive the same I used on my Meso Customs badges that have held on for over a year.

    Pretty sure these are the same as the ones on Aliexpress. The rear molding, and the imperfections on the top of the R and D kind of give it away.
    Also not 3d printed, but injection molded.

    Aliexpress usually goes for $25 a piece, so 50 for a pair.
    But, you have the option to buy in very large bulk, bringing down the cost significantly.
    running4tacos have the same set for $35, but with the original grey foam adhesive, thus they even recommend changing it to 3m.

    These (TacoGarage) are better in terms of price and the packed adhesive.

    I saw weeks ago runnin4tacos was $37 but they have been sitting for a while at $45 and they do not come with an adhesive backing. You have to buy decal gel to apply to it now. CAnt beat this for $25

    Met AJ @FreshMexicanTaco today and he seems like a really nice guy. I picked up an extra set today also just in case I have issues with these but he said he would stand behind them and replace if they fell off. I was originally going to use my 3M adhesive made for automotive but changed my mind. I can tell this stuff is pretty strong because there was a little tab I used to test and stuck that to the body. It was definitely hard to take off.
    Most of my time spent was not installing these but removing my old Tacoma logo. A heat gun, goo gone, simple green, a towel and a blade was used and I still had some scrathes I had to use touch up paint on.
    I used measurements someone had posted in another thread regarding placement. I cleaned the area first and then used rubbing alcohol before application.
    All in all I was happy with how they looked versus other people's painted ones and the price was right. The only thing of concern was the lettering seems like an orangish/red which I don't remember if that's how the PRO letters are. I also had to remove the red SPORT on my decals on the bed as it just didn't match these new badges but I'm perfectly happy with the outcome.
    Thanks again FreshMexicanTaco aka AJ.

    Now if I can just get a set made that say "TRD Nope" due to my lack of sexy TRDness. Looking good guys, badges and trucks look great!

    Looks really good. Do you have the measurements or the link to the thread you got them from?

    It says from the bottom of the mirror assembly, 1.1"
    But that would put it too close to the mirror.
    So I did 1.1" from the door's body line.

    Haha...yeah I read the same thing on the template and found the same predicament. I too measured down from the body line after that.

    Ok so just figured this out. I have both the sport and the off-road versions sitting by me. The off-road ones have that sticky clear adhesive and the Sport versions all have the sticky foam much like the appearance on factory emblems. I'm pretty sure the foam adhesive is what @Rainoffire was talking about. Not sure which is better but will post feeback later if I have any issues.
