Lots of posts on this forum with more detail about how to debadge. Try the search feature.

Quick answer: clean the truck, do it on a warm day in the sun and/or heat the emblems gently with a hair dryer, use waxed dental floss to work back and forth behind the emblems until they come off, peel the rest of the adhesive tape off by hand, use Goo-Gone to remove any adhesive residue.

I like black vehicles when they are sharp, styled, detailed, clean, and on display but not for every day use. They are just too hard to keep clean and they get too hot in the sun which is a big problem where I live.


ya gotta love black!!

Key is to wash car/truck often and keep her waxed, lots of work, yes but she looks sooo good!


Traded this for Tundra



My Daughter stole this from her mother!

VOZ- The black debadged Tundra looks the best, hands down! I'm kinda partial to silver paint with a lil chrome though.

I don't do debadging on my own vehicles - but rebadging is cool. There's a Tundra runnin' around here that's tricked out with "Georgia" badging, and a G instead of the T-inna-circle front grill emblem.

I know everyone is not a fan of debadging but it's all about personal preference! I personally think Toyota went over board with the badges IMO, But I understand some people like the look of all the badges. Here's a couple pics of my truck debadged.........





And BTW, The dealer license plate frame will be coming off as soon as my tags are in...lol!

I agree with many other above. I'd really like the take the dealer crap off, and leave the factory stuff. Thing is, mine is being build right now... so I won't even know for months.

I read last week that someone used fishing line to pull badging off, then goo gone (or some such thing) to pull off residue.

If you decide to debadge, its REALLY easy. I was kinda worried about doing it but it was dead simple. I think my truck looks great now. Some say plain, but I like vanilla ice-cream too. Anyway, I even took off the TRD sticker and they came off in 5 minutes or so (each).

Bottom line, if you like clean, debadge.

I say yes and no. I took off everything that didn't say tundra, except 4X4 on the tailgate. I have to say I like it better this way, definitely a much cleaner look. The 5.7L badge was just to big.
