Removing Black Vinyl From Doors
I noticed a couple of Tundras with the black vinyl removed from the front and rear doors. I'm referring to the black area at the back of each front door window on a double cab.

Re: Removing Black Vinyl From Doors
Forum member Marky Mark doesn't have them on his silver Tundra, and I personally think it looks sweet. Just wondering what's involved in getting them off...

Not trying to be a forum nanny...but if you do a search there are some members that did this mod. Mixed opinions for sure.
I pulled the vinyl off the door...

Re: Removing Black Vinyl From Doors
Several members took theirs off and found paint blems underneath. I guess how it looks also depends on your truck's color.

Some had blemishes and had to buy the replacement vinyl for it ...believe it was about 85.00

Was about to remove the vinyl of my CM.... But I guess I do not want to take a chance.

Re: Removing Black Vinyl From Doors
I know of several who have removed the vinyl, including me, with no problems.

Looks so much better with the vinyl off IMO. Talk about cheap!

Re: Removing Black Vinyl From Doors
I love modding trucks. My personal opinion is that, the lighter the color, removing the black vinyl cheapens the look of the truck. It reminds me of a Dodge Dakota.
