I've had my '03 Tacoma for about a month. It's all monochrome and looks pretty classy except for the big ol' stickers on each rear quarter. I did a couple searches and saw some talk about removing the pinstripes, etc. but who has pulled off that big honkin' sticker?

I'll take a hot day in the sun and go to work on it, but what have the results been?

Once I've done that, I'll de-badge some of it (the TOYOTA on the tailgate and maybe the door emblems.)

Thanks.

I've taken off all decals on my vehicles. Using a heat gun gently warm it up and peel it right off. If it's older and it keeps breaking I'll use and air eraser. Touch up with a little cleaner then wax.

The dealer was wondering where the TRD stickers and badges went on my truck when it came it for service...The heat gun works great, than use a little goof off to get off any extra residue.
Don't use a putty knife or anything like that...you can always tell when someone as done that....

The decals are off. Parked in in the sun the other day and peeled off 85% before I pulled out of the parking lot. A hairdryer and a little patience took care of the rest (and the other side.) A little bug and tar remover followed by 2 coats of Maguire's and you can't even tell it was there.

I'll work on debadging when I get back from Colorado it three weeks.

also heard dental floss works too, probably not as good as a heat gun tho

My truck looks way cleaner with the decal removed. I can't seem to get the badges off.
