They came out good. Were you able to keep the holes in the R and A white with the background?

Yes I was able to get them out, I found that it was actually very easy to peal I just took a sharp piece of plastic and cut inside the badges (around the letters near the 3M tape) took some patience but when i went to peal it all off it came off great. I did 4 coats, letting each sit 25 minutes before applying next (my garage is heated) then for the final coat I let it sit nearly 1 hour 30 minutes before pealing it all off.

I am considering doing the chrome strip along the door, it wouldn't be that hard to do and it can come off if I don't like it so why not, right? Perhaps I will do that today if I get a chance and post pictures see what you guys think.

Just remember to clean the surface real well, I used a new brush that you use to clean dished (the bristles are long and stiff) so this allows it to get in the hard to reach spots, I also put a tad bit of white vinegar in the water, then cleaned around the letters with a cotton swab followed by a micro fiber towel.

Thanks all! Oh, I scheduled my Rhino Line for Monday and they said it wouldn't be a problem going over the tailgate and filling in the holes.

Which holes? Plasti-dip looks great by the way, I think I might try it on my grille. I hate the chrome grill!
