Hey everyone. I debadged my whole truck (05 dak) except for the ram in the middle under the tailgate handle.
Does anyone know if this is like the rest and just double stick tape holding it on?
Im looking to plastidip it and reattach it

 

Yeah its just like the rest

 

But, for me anyway, it was the hardest one to remove. I spent more time on that one than all the others combined! Of course, I didn't heat it or anything, just used fishing line.

 

Yes it was a pia even with heat

 

They sell those large tailgate emblems from the Rams, It might look even better than the one that we have. I know at least one member picked it up and it looked good.

 

^ That would be me. Mine is the Ram head without the Dodge logo. I think like 2009 Rams had it because it was still an affiliate of Dodge but now RAM is technically its own division. It is about $30 from the dealer but I like it. Originally had it chrome then I plasti-dipped it ( with it on the truck). Just put painters tape around the edges of the emblem with some newspaper after the tape to cover up the tailgate and spray away. Three of four coats and you're good.

 

You dont have to remove it to plastidip it. Just leave a 1-2" gap around the emblem and mask off around it. The idea is to plastidip that entire area including and around the emblem so when it dries, you have enough around the emblem to peel away leaving just the emblem dipped.

This explains it well:
