De-badging - SRT Forums

So I wanna get rid of the "Dodge" and "SRT-4" on the trunk. But I don't know if there are holes underneath them that I'll have to take care of, or if it's just like a double-sided tape. Anyone know? Also, how would you get the residue of the tape off the paint without harming it?
Thanks alot.

I took mine off plus the stage 1 & I got no glue left on mine. Just takes a lil time.

So you just yank em off? Any technique or anything to be worried about with the paint? And to get the residue off, you just use soap and water?

There is some stuff at the auto parts store you can get. I think it is bumper sticker remover! Comes in a small can.

just try picking at them with your fingernail. that is how mine came off. if they wount come off that easy try heating them up with a blow-dryer. after i got mine off i just used some bug and tar remover and then waxed the trunk and you cant even tell that they were there.

dental floss, pull out enough to get a good hold of and use it to slide behind the emblems. like they said above,bug and tar remover works.

Hair dryer and goof off took care of mine

hair dryer, mint dental floss and a clay bar. it also helps if it's like in the 90's outside. takes about an hour with all the detailing.

I just pushed each letter to the side then removed it with my fingers.............

I used a hair dryer and some goo gone on a soft cotton rag to get mine off.

STUDLEE1A · 07-31-2008, 12:26 PM

goo gone ftw!

heat gun and some paint cleaner

as stated above, i've heard alot of good things about using dental floss too. we just took the dealer decals off my car not long ago, takes a little elbow grease to say the least.

credit car and something to take the adhesive off. takes 2 minutes.
I'd recommend polishing the area afterwards. Thats what i did and you cant see the letter outlines.
