how do you get the factory plastic badges easily

 

If you want to remove them, heat them up with blow drier or heat gun and run a heavy gauge fishing line behind them. Then clean up with some goo gone or similar. Good luck!

 

thanks for the info

 

You don't need the heat gun. Just use the fishing line and the 3M eraser wheel. I tried the heat gun and it just left more goo on the truck.

 

3m Wheel save a ton of time!!!

A nice warm day, fishing line, eraser wheel, Adhesive remover or rubbing alcohol get's my vote. Did mine a couple weeks ago. Everything except ram head on tailgate. It's coming off next darn thing keeps making water stains after washing.

 

Yep, Did most of mine this weekend.. 3m Also makes adhesive remover in a aerosol can.. Works wonders on tar too!!! Just have the 3500 left to take off. Thinking of putting it on the tail gate and making it say 5500 with the badges left off of my o5!!!!

Any auto paint supply store.. Possibly napa???

I'll see if I can find one, I've got some debadging to do myself!!

 

The 3M wheel is the only way to go. I saw it on here & went and bought one. SOOOOOO easy with the wheel. I got my wheel at carquest auto parts. The NAPA store didn't carry it where I am in Houston.

 

just got through debadging the 07 tonight and all of the suggestions work great thanks guys

 

Be prepared to choke on the price of the eraser wheel. I paid $35 at Carquest and about fell over. But it works great. Now i'm ready to debadge everything. Now only problem is my wife is about to debadge me . So I better leave her car alone for now.

 

Do you mind me asking, why do you take them off?
-P

 

Not getting paid for advertising. Easier to clean and wax. Personal preference.
I thought the tailgate looked terrible with all the chrome lettering on it.
