    Hey there. Just wanting some opinions on this. I have currently removed debadged my 2011 longbed with the exception of my "TRD Sport" sticker on the bed. I'm considering removing it to completely, "black out" my truck, keeping it to give it a little something or replacing it with another sticker all together. What do you guys think? If you think replacing it is the way to go, with what? Thanks.

    I'd take it off and replace it with one of sockmonkeys versions in like a dark grey or something. That way it is still there but it will give it a ghosted look. It won't be as noticeable as the stock badge but you will still have something there. Just my opinion.
