Has anyone blacked out all the chrome emblems yet? Planning on using the factory black emblems.

Yeah one of the first things I did to my truck after it came home. Used the factory black emblems for the grille, hood, and tailgate rams head. Just removed the door badges and the “bighorn” and “4×4” badges from the tailgate
@Randy bighorn is it adhesive or clips?
@Taylor everything on the tailgate except the big center emblem is just adhesive. I used fishing line and an eraser wheel for the big horn and 4×4 badges
You have any pictures? Was anything a pain in the ass?
@Nick see my comment below
I can take some, the worst one was probably the tailgate rams head because it snaps in, and has the adhesive foam backing. So it took some patience to get off. And then a bit of time with an eraser wheel to remove all the foam adhesive residue.
The hood and front badges were easy, just snap in and out, no sort of sticky stuff to deal with. So be careful prying with something that won’t scratch the paint or plastic and they come out fine.
The doors and other badges on the tailgate I used fishing line to cut through the foam adhesive and then the eraser wheel to remove what’s left from the truck
@Randy i just heated metal and took them off and then the sticker start one corner and just pull and stretch it and it releases not to much heat though then it gets sticky and messy
A little dirty thanks to recent snow

Mine! Did u put vinyl on the black hood ones
Yeah I found a listing on eBay for color matched decals for the emblem so I figured why not lol
Ya I would probably use Trim Tools and Fishing line for whole process but I want the ram on the doors too
@Nick I think these are the least expensive to replace the doors. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F292701210410
yeah those should be the right ones for the doors. I thought about doing the doors black. But ended up liking the look without any lol
@Nick also the adhesive is no joke on the factory ones. The letter will come off easy but it leaves behind some strong stuff. If you don’t have an eraser wheel the back of of a rubber handled or silicone handled utensil actually grips it but it takes some heat also.
I found all this! And I’ve bought products from them before
@Nick check Avondale on eBay also. The link I sent btw came with Mopar part numbers on each backing paper
Will do
I wish I could get my lonestar emblem black also
I covered mine in vinyl
Blacked out and debadged. I would’ve debadged the hood but its a big ass hole in the hood. Don’t like the badge on the hood.
Did all mine and took off door emblems and all tailgate emblems but the center ram changed that to black factory its one huge 3m stick on with a few clips as well. The doors are just stick on as well as all other emblems on tailgate. The front ram is just really tigjt on small screw driver work it apart it will have clips and 2 posts each letter other way is to take grill off. The hood badges are just cliped in pull out wards on corner top and work it off.
@Erik thanks man
I want to black out mine but the chrome bumpers would make it look like shit
@Erick have them painted have them prepared and paint them to match body
@Erik that’s expensive as fuck lol
@Erick cheaper then buying new body panels just giving you an idea lol
@Erik I’ll definitely look into it. I just don’t want it to cost more than $400 lol
that’s why when I bought mine I had to have the sport appearance package
@Erick vinyl wrap them
Seen it done
@Nick I couldn’t imagine they make vinyl that is color matched to this truck lol
I’d have gotten sport package but I got this truck when 19s were slim pickings
What color is urs ?
must have some metallic in it ?
@Erick it migjt be that but im.thinking more but it might be i was told 500 to do my diesels grill and front and rear bumper
@Nick mine is the delmonico red
@Erik that isnt too bad
