    Any thoughts on how to make the embossed Tacoma on the tailgate disappear under a company vehicle wrap? My company is going to Tacoma for work trucks and due logs need to minimize or eliminate the embossed Tacoma logo from showing through.

    you could get the inserts that might help a little but other than body filler and sanding not sure how you are going to smooth that out..........

    you could get a thin piece of plastic, cut it to the width of the tailgate (over the "Tacoma" obviously), then wrap over that. Easy peazy.

    OR....let it stand out and emphasize it so everyone knows your employees get to drive Tacomas and then everyone will want to work for you.

    This would be the easiest solution.

    Not sure what the big deal is on showing the Tacoma stamp on the bed. I've seen a couple of third gens as company vehicles that are wrapped in the companies logo and they just wrap the the bed showing the stamped lettering. It looks good and it doesn't interfere with their business contact information.

    Why don't you just sell your truck if you hate it so much?

    Hey if we start a gofundme and get 5K for you, will you then sell it so we don't have to listen to you whine?

    Use the ignore function and start a list of people who annoy you. You just joined mine.

    I don't get it. It's a clear tailgate? Lexan? And how the fuck did they secure that wheel. Weird.

    This makes no sense and I am confused as to why people are liking it...................you will see the thin piece of plastic and it will look goofy. Example above......I really like the carbon and blue but the thin piece of plastic shows and bugs me. Yes easy peazy but half assed and cheap way to do it.

    Then fill in the lettering with bondo or whatever and sand it flush, then wrap it.
