i have a bunch of them on my truck and would never put anything liek that on my paint. i have had to detail cars and that adhesive combined with the paint fade makes a pain in the a$$ to get off. just put them both on the back window, it will look sicker

if you must go on the paint, see if they have magnets instead of stickers!
they may even make a bumper sticker sized magnet that you can stick it to!

Well, my Keep Tahoe Blue sticker came today, so I stuck it under the 4x4 badge on the tailgate. It's on the paint, but I don't really mind, I don't ever plan on taking it off. I also took the "Big Horn" badge off the tailgate as well, but I left the Flex Fuel badge on. I hated the Big Horn badge, too big, shiny and cheesy looking.

Hopefully my Nor Cal sticker will come soon.

Oh yeah, drove from Denver, CO up to Frisco, CO and back this past weekend and got 19 mpg for the trip!!

That's with hauling some furniture and two bikes up there, and hauling a washing machine and a lawnmower and the same two bikes back down. I'm pretty pleased with that.

Stickers will not hurt the paint on your truck and they are not hard to remove you just need to use a heat gun. As for the paint fading you won't have to worry about that with your color if you were adding stickers to a new dark color truck it will most likely fade a bit. i know i cover all my trucks with stickers my 08 is not done yet but i'll add pictures as soon as i figure out how lol

The best answer is "No stickers".

Keep it clean....just my opinion.

I do not like sitckers on the bumper or tailgate. One needs to go on the left side when you sit and the other in the middle of the back window. And don't worry about people calling you a tree-hugger. I have a GCA sticker on my truck (Gulfcoast Conservation Assoc.)

So, here's what I did.

The sticker here didn't turn out quite how I thought it would...

So I debadged the Big Horn emblem and stuck this one here:

Then I put the Keep Tahoe Blue sticker here:

Oh yeah, I had a few stickers left over, so maybe I'll stick them on this thing! My buddy bought the car I've been drooling over for a few months. I'll have to get one for me as soon as I can...
