    Hi All, I've seen a few references here and there, but not sure what emblem blackout options there are.

    anyone have any tips? previous gen blackout overlays fit 2022s?

    thanks

    So far I’ve seen three options:
    1. OEM
    2. Etsy has quite a few colors/styles to choose from. About 25 bucks cheaper than OEM.
    3. TVD Vinyl Decals - this will be your cheapest option.

    As far as the overlays you could always buy them and just don’t pull off the adhesive, kick it up and see if they fit. If not you could return them.

    I would do Plastidip black. Or if you want the shiny black option:

    What makes you think they're for 2021? It says right on the package under description it's for a 2022. I also have these on order (same part number) just waiting for them to come in the mail.

    got the overlays installed. the limited overlays are a bit blocky, but i guess there's a good reason for the way they made them.

    i washed all of the emblems with soap/water, let them dry, wiped down with alcohol, warmed the cover and emblem up with a heat gun. easy install. looks good

    I still don't get the color of the fender flares on these trucks other than the color match, it just looks out of place.

    ok, I didnt notice that color in the wheels, so its like a grayish color.

    IDK, it would look so much better color matched, but thats just my .o2 subjective BS.

    I have to have those color match if I buy the platinum Im thinking about

    I really wish they would sell just the grille "T" from the kit. I want to slap an overlay on that, but I don't want to spend $100+ for the entire kit.

    Can you get just the front emblem? My TRD Sport premium already has all the other badges blacked out, but the front grille emblem is still chrome. I was happy my trd sport has almost no chrome, but the front emblem is the only thing chrome. :frusty:

    It is a little odd they offer the overlay emblems from the factory but then did not cover the front T on the grill. I am having the same issue trying to locate a black overlay for the front T on the grill.

    I believe someone on the forum has already tried this. The Toyota "T" on the front grille is bigger this year compared to the previous generations.

    Amazon has a pretty generous return policy so there's no harm in trying it again, I guess.

    I'd like to add that for the 2.5 gens, the grill emblems were different sizes depending on the trim level. SR5 grill had a different sized emblem than the Platinum. If you order emblem overlays for 2021 and if there are ones for SR5/Limited/Platinum/etc., might want to try various ones. So again, no harm in trying?

    I installed the overlay kit, and they are really nice!! Been through 2 car washes, and no issues. I would suggest not installing them if the badges are cold. Best $119 I have spent in a while.

    Do you have a Limited with mostly chrome badges or did you find a kit with just the Toyota "T"? I've installed overlay kits in the past and have been impressed, but still not willing to spend $100+ when I only need a single overlay. haha

    Ahh. Gotcha. Then yes...the overlay kit is totally worth it. haha.

    For the SR5 TRD OR...all of our emblems are already blacked out except for the front "T" on the grill. It's the only one that isn't blacked out from the factory.

    It's very odd, but it seems "mixed materials" is one of the key themes Toyota chose on this generation of Tundra. I've never seen a wider mix of finishes across so many trims before. Chrome, "brushed aluminum", black emblems, body matched items. I swear they threw a bunch of options into a Yahtzee cup and just shook it to determine each trim. :rofl:

    Manage to pull off the front emblem pretty easy. 3 tabs that I just stick my finger in between the emblem and it came out. Don’t even have to open the hood.

    You da man! Saved me $150 bucks lol... really couldn't justify the price for the oem black out emblems when all i really wanted was just the Toyota grill emblem. I have a can of plastidip at home so will do this right now!

    Update: It really does come out that easy!
