    It's the OEM one. If you like it, @Unchained 5150 has a deal on them.

    I tried that first but mine looked like it was squatting in the back even though it measured a half inch higher. The 1" blocks in the back fixed that. I'd say the op should try what you did first and if he feels like I did, add the block.

    So TRD is a model? That's kinda what I am referring to when I say I don't want to be a poser. If I threw on a TRD sticker or TRD wheels when my truck is not a TRD. Or do I not correctly understand what a TRD is?

    TRD is a package Toyota offers. So the TRD Sport from my understanding is more of an appearance option whereas the TRD Offroad actually comes with some offroad goodies such as the locker and maybe downhill assist. Mine, an SR5 is another package that honestly I don't know what it comes with... either way I had a member on this forum make some custom decals for me so I wouldn't be a poser either.

    Thanks for the explanation gkomo. Mine is also an SR5. Your decal looks sharp! Hey what size tires did you go with?

    Actually after doing some research I might still be a poser. I'm pretty sure I am not a SR5. I think my truck is just the SR model with the Tow and Convenience packages.

    I have items in green and don't have items in red:
    *not sure what the SR5 fabric-trimmed seating surfaces are.

    V6 Tow Package: 1 Class-IV towing receiver hitch, transmission and supplemental oil coolers (transmission cooler not available on manual transmission models), 130-amp alternator, heavy-duty battery, 7-pin connector with converter, and Trailer-Sway Control (TSC) 2

    Convenience Package: Power mirrors, sliding rear window with privacy glass, cruise control, steering wheel audio controls, and remote keyless entry system

    SR Package: 16-in. black alloy wheels with P245/75R16 7JJ tires; color-keyed front and rear bumpers, grille surround, overfenders, door handles and outside mirrors with turn signal indicators; headlights with smoked trim; and fog lights (V6 models only)

    SR5 Package: Fog lights, chrome grille surround and rear bumper, color-keyed front bumper and overfenders, variable intermittent windshield wipers, power outside mirrors, sliding rear window with privacy glass, bucket seats with 4-way adjustable driver’s seat with lumbar support, SR5 fabric-trimmed seating surfaces*, cruise control, leather-trimmed steering wheel with audio controls, leather-trimmed shift lever (automatic transmission models only), metallic-toned instrument panel trim, dual sun visors with sliding extensions and vanity mirrors, remote keyless entry system and tailgate-handle integrated backup camera3

    I've since added the backup cam and intermittent windshield wiper switch.
