  • We will install a tailgate badge on my 2018 Toyota Tacoma Off Road truck. The emblems we will install are a raised pvc. This is a super easy Tacoma upgrade that looks awesome and only takes a few minutes.

    I love these things. I have a black Tacoma and bought some inserts from Amazon a couple of years ago. The chrome ones. They were easy to instal and looked INCREDIBLE. However, after the first winter, they pitted and became discolored. I did read some reviews about how some people had that issue. It's not really noticeable unless you're fairly close to it. I'm assuming the only ones that this would happen to are the chrome ones.

    • @hkstrongside
      @hkstrongside  3 года назад +1

      Hey, sorry I have been slow to respond. Was out of the country for a little bit. They make them in chrome, grey, red to name a few. Do you have chrome emblems? You could stick with that. If your truck is black, you could get the flat black. It would create a slight contrast from your gloss black paint. Could look cool. Or even a gray could look cool too.

      While I personally haven't removed mine, I imagine it would be similar to other badge removals. Take some dental floss and pull it through the adhesive to lift the letter. Then use decal adhesive remover to get the sticky crap off.

    I don't understand the obsession with why people have to put vinyl lettering on their F150's, Mustangs, Tacoma's etc. It looks way better left alone. From 10 feet away it used to look like thousands of dollars were spent on custom tooling dies to stamp 3D lettering in the sheet metal to give it some dimension to now looking like it has a $5 dollar sticker on a flat panel. Nice job!

    • @hkstrongside
      @hkstrongside  4 года назад +2

      I think one reason it is popular to do is it’s a very inexpensive way to personalize your truck. The raised letters inside the inset stamp also looks awesome imo, especially if you are going for a blackout look.
