Default De Badging
For those of you who have de badged your trucks what is the easiest way to get the badges off??? I want to de badge the tailgait and the doors. Do the badges just pull off and if so what is the best way to pull them off?? Sorry if this is a Dumbass question but I have never done it before. Thanks!!

you can use a heat gun or hair dryer or fishing line...but the best way i've ever used is with a putty knife & caution...& then to get the goo off use some acetone...not a lot though lol
