    Pretty much stock
    Just put my set on...they look great. I used soapy water and then sprayed the letters before putting them on...they slid around perfect and then i used a microfiber cloth to push the water out. Worked Perfect...still have an extra T!

    I just installed the black reflective on my MGM. Install went perfect. One thing I noticed is that the material does scratch easily. Mine already have swirl marks from the microfiber towel that I used. I'm thinking my first coat of wax will cover it up well.

    It really is the coolest thing to see reflected at night.

    Had these on in 15 minutes.

    Used lots of soapy water and followed the instructions that were included.

    I suck at decals so hope these appear good to you guys.

    So far, just a Hard Hat tonneau cover. Looking for mud guards and nerf boards.
    The instructions say they should last up t 7 years. Is there anyway to get them off if they start looking bad?

    Curious what these look like at night.. I have a White Taco and debating on this.

    OP, Are there other color options for the reflective color?

    I slapped them on yesterday.

    I went in dry. Sticked on pretty good. But I do have a steady hand.

    One small complaint.. Its a little less reflective that I expected.

    But the quality of the decals is there. 4.5/5 stars.

    There are no other options for the reflective color on the black vinyl reflective decals.

    I give it a 5 out of 5. Asked my partner who gives it a 10 out of 10 lol. I think we both like the fact that it's subtle, but not. If that makes any sense lol.

    I have white and the reflection is the same as the white background on my plates, VERY nice. and I put them over the previous non reflective ones. They do not blend inot the white truck.The reflection Definitely stands out.
