I'm curious too. I'll be on 5100 1.75" front and 5100 plus a 1" spacer in the rear. Trying not to rub with 275/70/17 with -10 or 0.

If you do a group buy don't be afraid to pay a little more for better quality.
I went for mid-grade decals to begin with and the black was pale, material was thin and hard to apply. Lesson learned.
Went with the top end ones and love them. Black is BLACK, red is red with sharp edges and they've aged very well. I put them on in March and they still look new. These pics were taken in August, but they still look like this.

I had the local Fastsigns make them. They're 3-1/4" which is the minimum needed to cover the beautiful "8".
I'm in the process of having a set or two made by one of my buddies who works at a print shop. He's using 3M ControlTac vinyl. We really dialed in the quality of the TRD logo and sharpened it up as well. I think they'll look great. I asked him to make me 4 sets so I should have a few for sale soon, and I'll know what the cost is soon as well. If there's demand I'll have him make more!

Put me in for a 1 set (red TRD/black background). I can PayPal if you asap if you guys go through with it.

I'd be interested.
OK, my friend is placing the order for a few sets on Monday and will confirm costs. I'll know more then and will report back as soon as I can.

I would also be interested in this.
OK, so I finally got the costs for the decals from my buddy. He has placed an order for 9 sets of 3.5" plain black / red TRD decals (different sizes can be done easily). They should be ready to ship out either Friday or early next week. We're going to do $20 for a set of 4, or $25 for a set of 5, which includes shipping. If you want something custom made he can probably do it for a few bucks more. He looked up the trademark info and got the official CMK colors and used a nice 3M material so they should be pretty nice!
As of right now, the people I have who expressed interest are:
4gin007
DRICHEY (can make a Saints Logo on a set if you want!)

Sweet, I just pm'd you for payment info.
BTW, I haven't ordered my set of MK6's yet until January. I'm gonna be lifted on 5100s all-around 1.75" front and w/ a 1" spacer in the rear. I'm torn between the 17x8 ET0 and the 17x8 ET-10. They will be wrapped with Cooper AT3 265's. I would love to have the more aggressive offset but just dont want any rubbing. Any ideas?

Do you know or think he could make some that would match the gunmetal gray ones w/ red trd letters? If so I'd be interested.
I have the 17X8 -10 rims. With 265/70r17 Duratracs on right now I get a tiny bit of rubbing in the front on the fender - nothing on metal. I'm going to be putting in a true 1.75" lift and 3/4" spacer in the rear today or tomorrow. I'll let you know if it rubs and also post some pics. I do love the look of the -10's! If they don't rub I think you'll be fine because the 1.75" setting on the 5100's apparently gives closer to 2" of lift.
I'll send payment info once they show up in the next few days. I want to verify that they look good before taking any money!
I'll check with him to see if he thinks they make the material in a color that closely matches. If they end up being slightly off it might not look great, but if a few people want them there shouldn't be any problem getting a couple of sets.

Yeah, if you wouldn't mind checking I'd appreciate it. If its off but barely noticeable I'd be interested. I just think the grey wheels with a black center cap sticker looks dumb.
I actually just spoke to him and he said the background color can be anything, so if we could get the CMK color from Level 8 for the gray we could really match it, or he can just play around with one of my center caps or something and see if he can make a good match. Then I think we'd just make those decals the exact size of the cap itself so the decal would go all the way to the edges.
He also said the first batch shipped today and SHOULD be at his shop tomorrow. I'm going to see him tomorrow night so hopefully by the end of the weekend I'll have some updated pics and we can get some shipped Monday or Tuesday at the latest!
