TRD Sticker "new" and where to place it.
This is just an idea for those who like to sport their TRD affiliation.
Go to: http://www.trdsales.com/shop/product.asp?catcode=275
Scroll down to just about the bottom where you will see a new silver TRD emblem, PN 08231-SP079 for $18.00. I have not touched this emblem but I have ordered one.
Where to place it? The obvious place is on the rear hatch, but I thought it could be cool to put one on *each* one of the rear black mudflaps? JM2C

Would they stick nicely on the mudflaps plus deal with road grime well are some questions you might ask yourself. IMO they wouldn't look bad there but I like it up higher like on the rear hatch even if it is a bit cliche.

I do not understand the whole TRD thing.. I mean they do not have a TRD 4runner and even the guys with the TRD tacos change out the parts that make it TRD ( save the e-locker).... Don't get me wrong, I think the sticker looks cool on the back panel.

Its called a supercharger boys... And if I spend all that money on something for my truck I'd sport it. This way isn't so LOOK I HAVE A SUPERCHARGER either. Its a small touch of I might have something under the hood or I'm a ricer. I don't mind a little hint here and there if you actually have the stuff. Hell, I plan on putting an arb decal on my truck when I get lockers.

again, I am not knocking people with the sticker...I was toying with the idea when I thought...I do not have anything TRD ( besides an oil cap )
an ARB decal is ok too..why because you have an ARB locker or bumper...but I do not think that many people will plaster an ARB sticker with no ARB products.

I like to think that I am supporting the Toyota Racing establishment. Let's face it...Toyota does not get the same attention or respect on the racing circuit that they deserve. So it is not so much you are sporting or bragging...but you are exposing more people to the fact that Toyota is a developer of high performance racing parts and a racing team. That's how I justify my stickers....I just love Toyota's.

I personally like the emblem. Peter when you get it let me know the dimensions on it. I might be interested in getting one myself, if it's not too big.

I justify my TRD stickers (silver/charcoal) since I sort of duplicated the TRD suspension package plus I like 'em and they draw the looks.
The stickers I hate are the "Powered by Toyota" (or insert any make) on Toyotas;isn't this such a "DUH" sticker. Of course it's powered by Toyota.

Wabbit,mine are exactly as yours and I mean to a "T" (RD).
I lined mine up with the taillight's backup light section at the bottom of it and then used a level to make sure it was straight,gee I hope my truck was level.
The tricky part was the gas tank cover and cutting it nicely but I got lucky and they came out near perfect.

I think they will look good on the mudflaps or on the rear hatch.
