Go to a paint shop, they will have double sided "tape" for reapplying the badges.

Well I just debadged the Ram. Man what a difference. Reference to removing the glue I used rubbing Alcohol and ALOT of elbow grease. Of course you need to use at least 3 towles, 1st pour alcohol and rub very hard. Use 2nd since the 1st now has the residue of the glue all over it. If you dont switch you'll make alot more work for yourself. After I used the 2nd rag I then sprayed the area with WD40 and did a quick rub. The 3rd cloth was sprayed with alcohol and I cleaned the whole area again. Now since I had the front of my truck repaired I noticed that since the paint and clear was faded into the passenger door I have a little lip of clear. I'll have to take a razor and slowly shave it down smooth and the compound it and wax it all out. Anyway though it does look alot better. Thanks guys for the idea on debadging.

I've used it on my other truck and had no effects. My buddy at US1 Auto used it for years with no problems. He just said don't leave it on there. Once done wash with soap/wax car wash. Now if the paint is alot different than the 95 I had oh well, we'll see.[&:]
