i like the 2nd option best by the way -- it gets rid of that stupid stealership symbol and keeps up the symmetry.

choice 2 got my vote. the first one would look good too, minus the stealership badge.

I like the emblems, so I choose option 1. Option 2 is also a good compromise. good luck

Talking Black pearl

I vote keep them all and swap them out to black pearls like I did. Way cool!

Black pearls are definitely sweet. I've been thinking about trying to do the paint 'fake' on my emblems. But I'm with calrockx, I would go with just removing the stupid dealer badge. I hate those. I'd leave on the Toyota, but if you want to keep the symetry, #2 is a good way to go. Just so long as the stealer logo goes by-by your rig will look nice.

I debaged mine for a few months .. but then I got bored with it .. and put them back on. Gives you something to read when your waxing the truck

hahah. interesting perspective!

im leaning toward 2.. this keeps up the symmetry & destealerships the truck (i even replaced their stupid license cover with the 4runner one you might be able to see in that pic -- bigger version of that pic available on the bottom of the 1st page at my site). i have no problem with the little 'toyota', but its really unnecessary and throws off the symmetry.

thanks for the opinions guys -- keep em comin!

get rid of the stealership sticker... I took mine off the day I got it... it was one of those stickers thats all in different peices so it took some time and alot of scratching but eventually I got it all off. "Atlanta Used Cars 555-5555" It was all of that and maybe a little bit more all split up... sucked.

I say keep only the Toyota oval and the SR5 badge, but get them in black pearl. It'll declutter it but still look nice.
