    That would look even better if you color matched that grille surround to the rest of the black on the truck. Grille just looks out of place with all that nice gloss black around it.

    It's subtle, but it's the pop of color that I think the front needed.

    Where did you find that badge? I have a black 3rd gen TRD Pro, and think that would be about the only color I would want on it. (I'm in process of a chrome delete, as we speak.)

    Are you talking about the tri color grill badge? I have one also, picked it up last year on Amazon.

    Just finished installing this rather nice powder coated stainless steel grille emblem from https://www.customcargrills.com/proddetail.asp?prod=3P-TriColor

    Had to source 2” 4x40 hex screws for them to fit my 2020 Sport grille. Also backed the backing plate with some Gorilla waterproof tape for some extra friction. Will see how they hold up through a Canadian winter!

    Are the color blocks steel or are they just mounted to a stainless steel plate? After a little more than a year mine have faded to where the red is no longer red, it's now almost pink. I was considering either removing or replacing but I don't want to replace it with another badge that fades considerably after only a year.

    EDIT: Ah, the installation video explains the color plate is vinyl for the three colors and can be replaced if damaged. My version is molded plastic for the color blocks.

    @jsinnard, yup they're vinyl. I got an extra set for no charge with the order from Matt, the owner. Will be interesting to see how long the vinyl lasts but I'll have a pretty good idea after this winter. The brackets themselves are very nicely machined, finished and it's a good size - not overly flashy but flashy enough!

    I had additional plans for some more tri-color but that hasn't happened yet. This is as far as I've made it.

    I was about to ask this as well, I just put a deposit down on an Army Green truck. I was thinking of going with something like these:[​IMG]

    Here's a quick photoshop job I did to get an idea of what the straight up Ivan Stewart vibe would look like on my 3g.
