    Today started off well. New @Coachbuilder1 parts came in the mail, picked up the new Tepui that came in and then I involuntarily added the "you're gonna need a new windshield" mod compliments of a Chevy changing lanes on the drive home. Perfectly centered in my line of sight. :confused:

    Went direct to local glass place. They filled it until I can find the time to have it replaced. It's a patch job that'll do for a few weeks but it's directly in my line of sight. Anywhere else and I'd live with it. Rock was big and I saw it coming. Nowhere to go. Oh well. Cheaper than the hood or roof. Quoted $280 to replace plus a trip to see my tint guy

    While installing my wheels today, we ran into my trucks little brother.

    What's your wheel offset and tire size? Looking good, I'm guessing it's close to what I'm putting on next week...

    That's pretty much all I could find unless I was willing to spend a couple hundred bucks. I went with the plasti dip and love it! $15 with masking tape and paper! Can't beat it!

    Thats what the dealer told me cost over $200. I didnt pay for it. But was wondering if their are in fact metal black badges or if they all are just a cover? No body knows huh?

    Plenty planned thanks to all of you.
    I debadged the chrome from the truck and then added the 5.7 all-black badges that I ordered from @Roman (pics coming). The MGM blacked-out looks pretty slick.

    I also installed the Tekonsha P3 brake controller in an ESP mount (thanks @havasubud it worked out great). This weekend I'm installing my ESP Under Seat Storage system and going to buy our TT.


    I'm trying to build up momentum so I can take on some bigger projects instead of paying to have them done.

    @CTX84 The OEM black badges from the Pro line are plastic, albeit black. I ordered the 5.7L and Tundra door badges from @Roman and for those four, it was $97 shipped to Alaska. They did not have the SR5, since it didn't come on the Pro, and I'm not sure if there is a limited one or not.

    That said, I replied to your post, if you still have those SR5 badges let me know. Those are what I need to finish the blackout badge bit on my truck. Please and thank you. :D

    I got the badges off today. Sadly the clear coat under the d/s 5.7 badge was deformed. Like the badge went on wet. Weird.

    I considered blacked out badges anyways, so it's going back on black.

    What method did you use to take them off, if you don't mind my asking?

    Heat, string, saw, peel, roll. Just like every other vehicle I've owned ;)

    Thanks for the follow up. So I'm guessing the deformed clear coat underneath isn't a normal thing in your experience? I ask because I'm about to do this for the first time myself. Want to make sure I don't do it wrong or anything.

    Ya, never seen anything like it. Do it. The odds are overwhelmingly in your favor.

    This was my method and it only took about 10-15 to do all but 5.7 badge. I left that

    Easy process.

    Heat gun $39.99...but you can use your wife's hair dryer (or yours if you have hair...i don't)
    50 lb fishing line from Wal-Mart $1.78
    Goof Off (super glue duty) or Goo Gone - $3

    Heat each badge 30-60 seconds on temp of 200
    Take the fishing line and easily saw and pull hard until you make it all the way through
    Roll up the excess adhesive. If it's done to the specs above you should be able to roll the adhesive up in one piece
    Squirt a little goof off on a micro fiber chamois and wipe the excess residue off
    wash with soapy water and rinse
    Wax
    Done

    Spend the extra few bucks on the spider-line and go fishing afterwards. My cheap line from Walmart kept breaking.
