Yes its 2 3m double sides adhesive strips. trust me, i measured it out and when i plastidipped my grill i finished it off with an emblem that fit perfectly in the indent. very satisfied
Cool. Ummm how good is the plasti-dip stuff? Like compared to paint. I already have my grill black, but it has chips in it because i painted it over a year ago and since i live on a gravel road.

plastidip grill iv only had about a month..but its holding up well and seems very durable. its an easy paint when it comes to spraying though. Mine came out flawless with no running or overspray, and I'm not the greatest rattler out there

tailgate can have whatever you want on it..i debadged everything and put on one of those XL ramheads from the 2009+ rams.

And the only symbols i have, is the rear ram logo, the dakota logo, and the ram head on the grill. I only want to change the ram head on the front. Maybe i can change the back too if i find one big enough. Perhaps like 5inch by 6inch.
Yes. I had the 4x4 as well...but that came off when I debadged...along with the pin stripes

How easy do you think it is to put the badges back on? I want to either debadge my rear completely, or paint the rear emblems black and reattach them as it would be hard to mask off inside the letters where the paint of tailgate is exposed.
