    New Toyota Tacoma owner and I would like to remove the hood scoop to paint it a contrasting color.
    How difficult is it to remove.
    Thanks

    I thought it was just a rubber gasket or something. I haven't actually removed mine, but it looks easy in the video.

    You're welcome. Post pics when you're done painting. Curious to see it.

    Anyone know what kind of vinyl was used in this video? And the size that would be needed to cover the scoop? I'm hopefully swapping hoods with another member tomorrow and want to wrap the scoop like in this video.

    I'll do my best not to drop them lol. I don't have it yet though, so could either of you guys give me a rough length of the scoop itself? Want to order vinyl now so I can apply it tomorrow, but just want to be sure I order enough to completely wrap it. Looking at 3M matte black vinyl

    I think you need a 18 inch by 12 but get a tape measure. Its much easier to paint it like i did.
