Default Debadging question

So I was de-badging my truck tonight after work. Got all the lettering, the stickers, and all the dealership crap off. My question is, the bowtie badge on the tailgate. Is it glued on with double sided tape like the other badges? Or does it have holes behind it? I didn't want to attempt to remove it (or damage it in the process) only to find holes behind it that need filling/repainting.

So to verify- no holes correct?

Thanks. I'll get that thing pulled off tomorrow!

That is correct. No holes. Mine came off the day that I brought the truck home.

Just FYI, it's some damn good glue holding it on too. It took awhile for me to get mine off and all cleaned up. the smaller letters were off in no time.

It helps to either park the truck in the sun or put a little heat on the emblem. It will come off easier that way.
