There is a slight "ghost stripe" where the original "Toyota SR5 V6" lettering used to be, but you can barely see it.



Pic of the interior.

All-in-all, I don't think it's looking too bad for 10 years old, 140,000 miles and lots of wheeling.

very nice looking
super clean

and yeah you can barely see the ghost marks

how long did it take you to take all of that off

Thanks. It took me 10-12 hours. Adhesive remover did not work for me. I used a hair dryer to lightly heat the paint and peel the stickers, then McGuire's paint cleaner (what you'd use before you detail a black truck) to remove the adhesive.

Today I removed the "Toyota SR5 V6" lettering on the tailgate and that took between 45 minutes and 1 hour.

*sigh* Now I REALLY miss my 96 Taco. Thats a sharp P.U.. You take good care of it....yet you use it. Very cool.

Looks good Ken.

Hey, I was looking for my Porter Cable today, and could not find it.
I guess I know who borrowed it

I like the clean look without the strips very much.
I may help out jim (Mytruck) take his off someday.

I have real paint on my rig for two different colored pin stripes, not sure how I'd take them off without ruining the paint.

DAMN! All I see on your tailgate is the perfect reflection of you neighborhood. Looks great. It is hard to believe that it is a 10 year old, black, truck.

I don't want you guys to get the impression that this truck is a garage queen. I didn't install the electric locker for fun.

It takes a little extra care on the trail to keep it dent-free.









But I admit, it will never go on the Rubicon while I own it.

Looks much better. I don't like decals for that reason---the ghosting.

Thats the sharpest looking toy pickup ive ever seen. The cap with rack makes it though.
