    You can get a roll of 1" wide 3M tape from Home Depot, works good. I used it after I painted mine but then ended up taking them off.
    It's a little time consuming cutting out around the letters. Do the new tape before you plasti dip them, that way they don't get messed up & the gray tape will get cover, looks better.

    Well, I went up to Wesley Chapel Toyota today to have my idle issue diagnosed. It appears to be the IAC valve. No surprise there. I had a pretty good experience there thanks to @Scooter WCT who put in a good word for me. Thanks, Scott! :thumbsup:

    I have to say I was a bit floored when I pulled up. I thought I left the OGT at home and somehow arrived in this amazing show truck the way everyone came out to ooo and ahhh the OGT. Even other customers were :drool: over it. I don't know why a slightly beat up ole trail rig has everyone all worked up, but people sure seem to love it. :cool:

    Haha, thanks, and I'm glad people think so, but honestly, it's really not "all that". It was built on an extremely tight budget so there's really not much to it (just the OME suspension, Swampers, and paint). Maybe if it was SAS'd, locked on both ends, with front and rear plate bumpers and sitting on 35"s I could see why it would get so much attention, but then I'm the type of person that appreciates function over form. :cool: I do have to admit, if I was younger and richer, the OGT would be a chick magnet. :D Lots of ladies seem to like it a lot.

    (I'm still planning on front and rear bumpers and a rear locker at some point next year. :fingerscrossed:)
