    Kind of reminds me of the old tundra I believe it had whole grill color matched.

    Looks nice. The entire grille being color matched really cleans up the front end on the black Tacomas.

    Thanks man. Yea mines the indigo ink pearl. But I like it. I just need to match up the clear coat with the trucks. I tried acrylic enamel but it kept turning into a milky color so for now it's a semi gloss enamel.

    I de-badged the tailgate today, My 11 DC SPT only has 800 miles so it was very easy. Read alot on the forums and have to say that it was as easy as everyone said. Most of the adhesive came off with just my finger, Touched it up with a little acetone when my finger got sore and it melted off like butter. Threw a quick coat of wax over the area just in-case the acetone stripped it down, but I didn't really notice a difference. Not sure if I will black em out or leave it bare yet, probably depends on how they look when I paint them. Will start with the V6 because that one is never going back on. It will be good practice for the Grill emblem which cante just come off :)

    Hair dryer, fishing line, acetone worked like a charm:D
