    It's a great product. If you mess it up then you can take it off and redo it. A fair amount of members on this board use it(like myself).

    It really is pretty easy just time consuming if you do it right. I spent most of the day doing the prep work and then 10 coats of paint. Just take your time and it will turn out perfect. The first couple coats won't look like it is covering but just make sure to hit every spot with light coats. On the last coat let it dry for about 10 mins and then peel off the paint from the vehicle and it will stay on the emblems.

    I moved the TRD emblems next to the Tacoma Emblems and it looks much better.

    Looks cool!
    Did you custom design that? If so, where did you get it from?

    Traded the 2015 TRD Pro 6spd Supercharged on a PowerWagon and could not be happier. My 2011 Tacoma with the TX Baja package (Added by me) is still treating me great. My 1985 Toyota never skips a beat.

    Picked up new tires today from Discount Tire. After reading countless posts here and based on how I use my truck, I went with Goodyear Silent Armors in P265 70 16s. I wanted 75s but have aftermarket rims and no lift and didn't want rubbing.
    Hopefully I'll be happy with my choice.

    When I called OTRATTW to order a switch, I mentioned what I would be using it for. I had planned to use one of their existing switches, but the guy said he would be happy to make one for me with with whatever text I wanted. So I requested the "2WD LOW", and he picked out the graphic.

    Very good customer service.
