If you want your Tacoma to look like it just rolled out of a custom shop — without paying custom shop prices or touching a paint gun — the Splash Grunge Side Decal Kit is the easiest upgrade you'll make this year.

What Is the Splash Grunge Side Decal for Toyota Tacoma TRD SR5?
This is a 5-piece matte vinyl decal kit engineered specifically for the Toyota Tacoma TRD SR5. Each piece is pre-cut to follow the natural lines, door gaps, and fender contours of the Tacoma — so you get a clean, factory-tight finish without any trimming, guesswork, or fabrication. The full kit covers roughly 90.6 inches in length by 25.4 inches in width per side, delivering true full-body side coverage.
The "splash grunge" pattern is a layered, asymmetric graphic that reads as aggressive and off-road-ready — it pairs naturally with the TRD SR5's mid-size truck stance. Because the kit is model-specific, you skip the universal-decal headache where edges don't line up with body seams or shapes hang awkwardly off panel lines.
Beyond the look, the matte PVC vinyl adds a layer of automotive protection to your factory paint. It blocks UV fade, shields against rock chips on highway runs, and takes daily abuse so your clear coat doesn't have to.
Key Benefits
- Tacoma-specific fitment: Pre-cut for the TRD SR5 — every curve, door edge, and fender line is accounted for.
- Full-side coverage: 5 pieces totaling ~90.6 in. x 25.4 in. — covers doors, bedside, and the splash transition between them.
- Matte PVC vinyl: UV-stable and chip-resistant, with a non-reflective finish that hides minor surface imperfections.
- Protects resale value: Acts as a sacrificial layer against rock chips, brush scratches, and sun fade on the original paint.
- No fabrication required: Peel, position, squeegee — no cutting on the truck, no trimming around hardware.
- Reversible upgrade: Removes cleanly with heat when you want to refresh the look or return to stock.
Why Your Toyota Tacoma Deserves This Protection
Tacomas earn their keep. Whether you're crawling fire roads, hauling gear to the trailhead, or just commuting through gravel-spitting highway traffic, the lower side panels and rocker areas take constant punishment. Toyota's factory paint is solid, but it's a single layer of clear coat against rocks, sand, road salt, and UV — and once the chips start, they multiply fast. A matte vinyl overlay across the side body absorbs that abuse before it reaches your paint.
UV exposure is the other silent killer. Southern sun bakes factory finishes into uneven fade patterns, especially on horizontal sun-facing panels. A matte vinyl wrap acts as a UV barrier across the largest exposed surfaces of the truck. If you want even more coverage for the hood, mirrors, and bumper edges, browse our full PPF kits collection — paint protection film (clear bra) is the next step up for full-vehicle defense. You can also explore all vehicle decals to coordinate hood, tailgate, and bedside graphics with this side kit.
What's Included & Installation
Your order ships with all 5 pre-cut matte vinyl panels needed to cover both sides of the Tacoma TRD SR5 — front fender accents, door panels, and rear bedside pieces. Each panel is numbered or positioned according to the install diagram.
Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with vinyl: clean the panels thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol, mist lightly with soapy water for positioning, peel the backing, align to body seams, and squeegee out from center to edge. Work in a dust-free area between 60–80°F for best adhesion. Most owners knock out the full install in 90 minutes to 2 hours.
If you'd rather hand it off, any local vinyl or wrap shop can install the kit in about an hour — just bring them the box.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will this fit my Tacoma TRD SR5 regardless of year?
Yes — the kit is cut for the Toyota Tacoma TRD SR (all model years). The body lines on the TRD SR5 generation remain consistent, so the pre-cut panels align across model years without modification.
Can I remove the decals later without damaging my paint?
Absolutely. Quality matte PVC vinyl removes cleanly when warmed with a heat gun or hair dryer. As long as your factory paint is in good condition underneath, there's no residue, peeling, or clear-coat damage. This is a fully reversible upgrade.
Is this the same as paint protection film (PPF)?
No — this is a decorative matte vinyl decal with light protective benefits. True paint protection film (PPF / clear bra) is a thicker, self-healing urethane designed purely for impact and chip defense. If your priority is maximum paint protection rather than style, check our PPF kits. Many Tacoma owners run both — PPF on high-impact zones and this decal kit for the custom look.
