New Emblems

I am in the process of debadging my truck. I got the tailgate done, easy task with the 90+ degree temps we have been seeing here. I read some great tips about how to safely remove the door emblems and the SLT one. Where is a good place to pick up the 3rd Gen "C"? (Thinking of leaving the door blank, or maybe putting on the new 2500's?)
I found another interesting looking emblem on EBay, I was thinking about slapping them up in place of the SLT.
Anyone had any experience with these?

Last thing I need is to take off my oem badges and find out the ones I stuck on in their place are crap.

I bought all mine from the dealer. Prices weren't to bad. I did the C, door badges, and tail gate bades. I left the SLT one off. Makes for a cleaner look.

Was just going through your gallery as you wrote that.......... Nice look you've got there. I love the new RAM 2500.
You say "Prices weren't too bad" I'm taking that to mean they cost you a little?
Round a hundred?

BTW, how's your tranny holding up to the Comp and injectors? I've been getting a wish list togther in case I ever become not Broke again.

Genos garage has a nice assortment of badges.
Genos

I like the new emblem but I also miss looking across the highway to see if the oncoming truck is a fellow CTD owner. Its easy to see the 2nd gen badges from that distance. Also the new little badge is hard to distinguish from the HEMI emblem unless your close up. I put the big C badge on my passenger side. See my gallery pics. Its a bit large but not too big.

Not to bad as they were only like $150-200 or some from the dealer. Much better than I expected. So far the tranny is holding up pretty good. I don't have the wire tapped though. I beat on it pretty good and it still comes back for more. Highest I've seen the trans temp was 200* and that was sitting in stop and go traffic for an hour with the AC on full blast in 100* Houston heat.

I got my 3rd gen. Cummins C from Genos. They are cheaper than the dealer by about $5 dollars apiece.

Isn't that wierd ? I shaved every emblem off just for the much cleaner look. I kept the 2 cummins badges and mounted them to my tool box.

Just got baby back from the body shop, (little "fender bender", with out the bent fender). I had already done the easy ones (tailgate stickers) so, they buffed that up for me and it looks great. I wasn't smart enough to debadge the sides so they could clean those up for me too.
Other good news is that my cracked dash got fixed too, only cost my insurance company $738.00 for that one. (Just over 2K for the bumper, grill, dash and related brackets). Looks great now. I'm leaning torwards just the "C''s, no 2500's or the SLT's.
Not totally sure what I'm gonna do yet. I DO hae a deep model DP tool box that I took off of my Chevy before I sold it. I wan't to put it in, just afraid of people scrathing up my bed sides??

You can buy them from cummins at $ 3.75 each, they are a little larger, but nice
