    i figure the emblems shouldn't really be an issue but i am concerned about the stickers. bodyshop who repaired my camry after an accident advised it could be a major pain and i'd likely have to repaint the beds.. taking off trim, clearing both bed sides. said when they remove fender covers they could crack and i might need new ones so be prepared.

    the other issue is there is some wear on the front cab from previous owner. will need to get the cab sprayed to fix clear coat i'd say sooner than later but i likely have through the winter at least.

    shop said to just repaint the cab and leave the stickers but i'd eventually like no badges or stickers and just a clean look but it seems dumb to paint 2/3 of a truck i just purchased and am financing. also seems dumb to just paint the cab and leave the stickers.. it has 30k miles so i plan on having it awhile.

    any suggestions? ways to reduce shadows without painting bed if i remove stickers

    i honestly think i have tacoma overload

    Rebadging at this point may leave ghosts. Pull one off and see.
