    you must not have been on the site during the "Great War" where the Carolina Alliance declared war on Canada (for obvious reasons) and Texas (for reasons i can't currently remember but i'm sure they were good ones so we're gonna keep "hatin" on texans). It was a great war but the Texas leader Sawdust, gave up leaving the CA to claim victory. Something similar happened with TheMaster and Canada

    Love your Sig, I'm from RI and a die hard Sox fan... Gotta love the Pats too!

    I debadged mine a few days after I bought it. Don't like stickers and badges on my stuff. Easier to wax, slick clean look. I know what kind of truck I got.

    Brother, I agree with you completely. I have been shopping for a new Tacoma, and that hood scoop is the only option that makes me want to go with the sports package over the offroad set up.

    I’m also “de-badging” my Tacoma , going for that clean look.
    I’m having such a difficult time removing the left over adhesive from the TRD stickers, I’ve been using Goo-Gone but it’s hardly working at all, I have to scrub and scrub and it’s taking forever!! , I’ve been afraid of using anything else for fear of ruining the paint, so you used Goof-off and everything was ok?

    Goo gone suck! Took me over an hour to get the left over adhesive off! There has to be something else that works better and doesn’t mess with the paint

    Park it in the sun on a hot summer day and I bet it will peel off with little effort.
    You can also use a hair dryer or a heat gun.
