    Give me your opinion please. I am not yet ready for the debadged look, and want to use PlastiDip on my badges. Should I go red or black? If you have a MGM Taco and have dipped your badges please post pics. Don't hold back on your comments too. I can handle it. LOL

    Green is the color of Money and I am reminded of that ever since I bought the TACO. Bought it because my P.O.S. F150 was costing me money. Now I have a new dependable truck, yet I am still spending money on it. But I ain't complaining. LOL

    I was set on black plasti dip emblems and gonna throw on some ATX Artillery, but now I'm thinking red might be pretty sick if I get black rims with a red ring similar to my motorcycle... then they will match :rolleyes: hmm

    Like this:

    Ya i think that is what he was implying. I went for the partial debadging. Lost the toyota, sr5 and v6 on the tailgate kept the tacoma and added a painted trd badge. I would go with black but thats what all the mgm guys do (including me)
