    Used the search function for this forum only, but no results returned.

    Does anyone make black lettering overlays for the 4th gen 4runner? I see them all over the place for the 5th gens... Since I got my black wheels I think I should go full tilt and black out all the chrome lettering as well. I'll probably debadge the liftgate, but for the sides where it says "Limited 4WD", i'd like to keep those and just make them black. Could go the plastidip route, but would rather have overlays if possible.

    I used PlastiDip. Didn’t want black so I used the color they call “smoke.” It’s kind of a gunmetal or dark stainless steel look.

    Ya I plastidipped my Tacoma badging. It works and has held up fairly well over the last 6 years or so since I did it. Need to do some touch up now though. Overlays would be so much easier, however lol
