I really thought about doing that...but once I took them off, I realized how much they damaged the truck. They rubbed through the paint and all sorts of dirt/sand/grime was trapped between them and the fender lips...so I decided to just get rid of them, not worth the hassle, IMO.

how much did you pay to get all your badging and your fender flares removed?

I removed all the badging/moldings myself the first month I had it, about 4 years ago. I removed the flares myself but once I saw the damage underneath I took it to my body guy to fix it. He had to fix the spots where the flares wore through the paint and blend it in...he also painted the cowl hood (top and bottom), tailgate handle/spoiler, mirrors, bumper cap, bowtie, and airdam. He also fixed the dents in the bedrails and re-sprayed those. Cost for all that was $700.
