2018’s come with black badges!

Oh ok.
The Tacoma ones were definitely overlays... the inside of the A’s were not cut out.

 

There you go!

 

Plastic dip $5.98

Genuine Toyota. About $25 each from Various online sources. I bought mine on eBay from a Toyota dealer.

 

I don’t really want to pay $100 since I will only use about 4 of the overlays, but I’m gonna have to do something soon, and not temporary “Plasti-Dip”.
Since replacing the chrome caps with the black, my chrome badges stick out like a sore thumb.



I, at least, removed the chrome V6 badge. I may sand it, paint it matte black and reapply it.
If it comes out okay, I could do the same to the other emblems for a lot less than $100.

 

Cool?
I wonder if @gunny1005 has them at a good price???

 

I was thinking about buying a pair of those as I think they would blend nicely with MGM.

 

Just debadge all the way

 

I wondered about sanding the chrome off as well. Maybe like a wet sanding project. Or Dremel it off. $100 is steep for stickers.

 

I like them on Inferno!

 

Awesome contrast, looks great!

 

Post 26 shows black Tacoma emblems for the Gen2 Tacoma. On Gen3s, T on door emblems and tailgate match. Subtle difference, but apples and oranges.

 

Dang!
That looks sharp!!
Definitely looks cleaner than the plastic overlays, IMO.

 

Thought about it, but not sure if I like the total debadging.

 

Yep. Badge and sticker delete. Cleaner look.

Do eeeeeeet.

 

Yes... that does look clean.

I kinda like the subtle look of matte black badging on a black truck.

 

Definitely dig it on the QS

 

Yup, they are 2nd gen Tacoma badge font. If you don’t care, then it’s a great buy for already painted badges, but I am a little picky when it comes to those kinds of things.

 

Got a link?

 

I’m sure someone will be buying a Chinese grille soon and will sell theirs.
