Wondering if anyone has ever made or could make a decal for a 2nd gen tailgate to simulate the 3D effect of the 3rd gen tailgate where the sheet metal is indented above the TACOMA lettering. I'm thinking some kind of shadow effect decal to give the illusion of stamped metal.

You could certainly take the letters for a 3rd gen truck and simply apply them to the center of the 2nd gen tailgate. They wouldn't sit in stamped in / recessed letters like the 3rd gen trucks, but if all you're looking for is the "TACOMA" letters, that would do the trick. Personally, I think it would look a little crowded back there.

I was looking for more of an architectural look that just the letters .
