That was the first thing i took off. They gotta go lol

I have to admit I really hate it. Is it as easy as removing the badges?

By far the easiest. I hit mine with a blow dryer for about 5 minutes and it peeled right up leaving no residue

How hard is it to remove the Ram Head emblem on the tailgate? I would like to change mine eventually.

Not the worst. I took the access panel off on the inside of the tail gate and popped the two clips off on the top. Heated it up evenly as possibly and slowly and carefully pryed it off.

How hard is it to get the badge of the hood? I was gonna get the black emblem for that as well as all the other badges

Carefully pry them off. They have tiny clips on the backside that will just break.

Badges gotta go. Only I need to know what trim I have, and I’m sure everyone can tell it’s a Ram. Mines the limited so it’s way overboard chrome.

Another vote for debadging. Anything that come off with reasonable effort comes off. First removed the tailgate badges and side RAM badges, and just recently took the time to get the Limited chrome strips off the sides. Heat gun, some good dental floss and goof off or other adhesive remover and you're good to go.

Why debadge, your truck might be mistaken for a Toyota. lol

I hated the chrome on my Laramie with the Sport Appearance package. I have it all off except for the doors (their coming off too).. the front and back I installed OEM black emblems.

Did u do the debadging and badging yourself? If so how did u go about doing the tailgate? Thanks

No video, but there are quite a few useful tips in this thread...

My 15’ was debadged. I liked it but decided to keep badges but go all flat black. Just waiting on the door badges to arrive to finish it all up.

I don't mind the badging on the trucks. Makes it look even with the front being so busy. I guess it's different strokes for different folks. I actually like the badges and if I could I would put a 4x4 off-road badge on both sides of that bed rather than a sticker

I debadged most of my Laramie. Replaced the chrome RAM head on the tailgate with the OEM Black one. Plasti dipped the Ram letters on the grille and also the 1500 on the center of the hood.
