    @rrentrop Great service, great product. The tailgate letters are actually the black reflective ones (flash on the camera lit them up). The glove box letters look a little less red than they actually are in the pic below. They look more like the door sill color actually. (I think the sun was washing it out a bit). Door sill lettering looks great. Thanks rrentrop !

    That's the question I am waiting for an answer too before I do the door sills. I have done the glove box and tailgate and they are great.

    Tailgate about a month and glove box a week or so. I have very little doubt about their lifespan, like yourself, the door sills with their constant exposure to the elements and wear and tear give a little reserve.

    It hasn't been that long, but no issues at all. No pealing, no bubbles.

    Had these on my ‘16 and loved them. Got them online for my ‘18 and as you know, it’s hot as hell in Orange County right now. The letters got all messed up from it and they shrunk/stretched. Couldn’t make them look right no matter how hard I tried. Everyone, be careful about installing these when it’s super hot and humid out.

    I have to say, if anyone needs to know we're driving a Tacoma, they need to get to know trucks.
    These vehicles are unique in their own right. We don't need to advertise.

    100% agree. My instructions actually says to apply these when the temp is between 60 and 80 for best results.

    I ordered mine from rrentrop as well as the Tacoma Mountains emblem which I installed where the TRD stickers go on that configuration. They have been on for over 2 years now and looks as good as the day I installed them.

    Do yourself a favor--order them from him. I've seen the ones dealers install and they are not as substantial as his. I could almost peel off one on the lot with my finger.

    Was cool enough this morning to apply the vinyl inserts. Patience is key, follow the directions and it's very simple. Really pleased with the quality and think it looks great. The glovebox insert looks fantastic also. Highly recommend!
    Thanks again rrentrop!

    Anybody with a Cement Tacoma done these on their Tailgate yet? I'm wondering which color would look good on cement?

    Black unless you like chrome. I like chrome but if I had cement it’d be black.

    Anymore MGM owners care to share a tailgate photo? Interested in the black vinyl but it almost seems too subtle.
