Debadging FJ TT

It's not that I don't love little badges cluttering up the back of the FJ, but they are going

So far I already cleaned off the left side, and i'm moving to the right after I post this.

I will buy your trail teams logo if you want to sell it.

I know what you mean. Did the same to my TRD-SE. Saving them for the outside change I ever sell it.

here's a little pic of the left side debadge

and here's a little cell phone pic of the afterwords

I only left on the FJ, I may take it off later, but i'll just leave it on for now.

Also with the trail team badge for sale, i'm sorry but i was planning on keeping it. I'm thinking about putting it on whatever new bumper front or rear that i will get eventually.. not that the mod bug bit me or anything.. cough..

I got rid of the Toyota oval T as well as the Dealership logo quickly after i bought the FJ.

I just did mine today actually. There are four bolts, and four snap tabs on the top. Just give it a good pull after removing the bolts and it comes right off. Sand it, tack cloth it, adhesion promoter, 3 coats of flat black, done.

ACTUALLY, you remove it from the FJ and it is fine to drive without it. So your dad can still take it while you paint/ let it dry. And procrastinating would be not doing something, last time i checked, you would be painting, therefore, working

SO what are you waiting for.
