Keep or remove bed decals?

this stuff here melted right through the dried up adhesive! Just wow! Best 20 dollars I've spent. Highly recommend took about 10 minutes to do both sides

 

I will be taking my decals off hopefully this weekend. I despise them....

 

Should have been a Poll, although it will really come down to want you want, not the Poll winner.

I love rocking my TRD decals.

 

I hate the fact they're decals what took toyota so long to finally stamp the pro model or have nice TRD emblems not a decal on a 40K vehicle

 

Happy I removed mine. Like the cleaner look.

 

I removed mine, I feel like stickers make a truck look "cheap" just my opinion.

 

Original decals did not go with the red and black.

 

Remove and replace. The black ones look much better than the white/gray ones.

 

I do like the black ones. Maybe one day I’ll go back to the decals

 

This is what you use to take the decal off. I removed an entire side of van decal on a work truck. Don't use anything else. Takes off the adhesive too and makes very fast work of it.

It's so much cleaner without IMO

 

You decide. It's your ride.
Instead of a TRD you can confuse people thinking it's a cheaper SR5.

 

@Panchito V, where did you get the black ones?

 

I love the decals TBH kinda lets everyone know what model you are trying to flex lmao but imo it looks a bit naked without them on the rear, you could also replace the decal with aftermarket ones companies make

 

What’s the best way to remove the rock guard on the rear quarter panels. Hate that it starts to yellow

 

If folks confuse a offroad or a sport or even a pro for SR5. That will be kinda sad.

 

TBH, the only folks looking (or caring) are here on this forum

I can see a potential buyer being confused, but if they don't know what the VIN is for, fuck em.

That said, I left mine on. I removed the V6 badge and actually added the tailgate inserts - which is something I never thought I'd do until I bought this truck. I didn't like the indented lettering. Plus, the decal kind of provides the same contrast as my fender flares and center caps/lug nuts on my rims. This way it's not a "murdered out" tacky all black and bland look that everyone and their grandma is doing these days.

 

Good point. I also added the tailgate insert. But I did remove the V6. Both door "Tacoma" I'm pretty certain people know it's a Tacoma. And lastly removed the Bed TRD 4X4 Decals. Love the clean look personally. And respect those that like the Decals. Bht like I mentioned nothing worth 40k plus should have Decals thag will deteriorate over time

 

"Keep or remove <or replace> bed decals"

One of the first things I did was replace mine with matte black.
