    Got it. Not all like it. I had them for 8 yrs on my Tacoma and didn’t like all the water they held after washing. Much happier with a smooth Tundra gate now. Your truck looks great !! Like all the blackout features.

    Bingo. Also, not a fan of giant brands in general. Without the inserts it’s at least a bit more subtle. With the inserts, it just looks like the truck is screaming its name at people behind it.

    TUNDRA! TUNDRA! Don’t you know this is a TUNDRAAAAA???!!!

    I like when folks do this mod, especially since people do the different colors or patterns. Hell, I have thought about doing mine in that mossy oak water camo or whatever my cooler is called. Anyway, I dont have mine done and I prefer it without. So on the flip side, I like that they left that to the owner to decide.

    I do miss being able to take off any branding like my mid teen rams, but even they changed it up so you cant remove them all.

    I didn’t spend the money to just swap out stuff.

    If you don’t call out TUNDRA everytime you see a 3rd gen, don’t talk to me.

    I was debating on whether or not I wanted to do this and I ended up ordering the Toyota black inserts for my Pro. I’m looking forward to adding a little more contrast to my tailgate.

    Lol well while all of this is true, my truck had it as a port option. The black on Army Green really looks sharp. It is a bit big, and I am a guy who won’t wear any clothing or hats bumper stickers flags; for anything that isn’t paying me. But here I am, a driving advertisement for Toyota :(

    The inlay letter look great, However;

    I'd go back to the dealership and DEMAND that take that dealership sticker off. Unbelievable that they would put an ugly advertisement on a $70K vehicle.

    I wish they had a smooth tailgate without the name embossed. I like the completely debadged appearance.

    The T100 badge has a heritage feel these days. Likewise the insert turned out nice on the Tundra here, matches SR5 trim well, one of my first mods.

    Same here. I started saying "Tundra Brother" in a Hulk Hogan voice each time I seen a Tundra. It started as a joke with my 3 year old. Now we say it for every Tundra we see. I'm positive my wife loves it.

    I can hear it and it's glorious, brother. It would be lost on my 6 year old though. Oddly it reminds me of a game she plays with her Grandpa, where they say "mailman" every time they see a USPS vehicle. So one day I drove by the Post Office and MAILMAN, MAILMAN, MAILMAN, MAILMAN, MAINMAIN....(about 8 more times). I entered the battle late, but by golly I won!

    I have exact same AG truck, and those white walled tires look killer on there. Hmmn………well I know what look I am going for when I get these crappy stock tires replaced

    That was the first thing I told my sales guy.

    No dealer stickers, decals, badges or licence plate holders, unless you are going to pay me quarterly to advertise for you.

    The tailgate letters are okay, but they use adhesive to stick and build up gunk and debris, another area for rust. No thanks.

    16/32" tread depth on this set, huge improvement from stock. Letters out turned out really nice in this case, unique look, looks great rolling too. Black OEM exhaust tip was a snap to install.

    I didn’t spend the money to just swap out stuff.
    I kept the dealer plate on for close to 2 months so that the state could bill the tolls to the dealer lmfao. Our state recently went to paper plates in the normal plate mount area instead of ones you tape on the window for new purchases. Probably to punish the hard working citizens instead of the folks that just drive around in stolen cars or ride plateless and tinted to hell doing whatever the fuck they please.
