Default Badges - New Style

I mentioned it briefly in another thread but I wanted to do some badges on my 3rd gen that looked different then the other dodges out there.

I combined "DODGE" badges from a Charger with the 4th gen "RAM" to look like this:

Name:  Badge4.jpg

Size:  18.6 KB

Name:  Badge3.jpg
Views: 17
Size:  26.6 KB

Would love some comments / opinions.

i agree with dedogg. its different, and not bad. not a big change, but something that makes your truck yours.

I want to take the "DODGE" off the back of mine and put the RAM on like you got on one side, and the 4x4 on the other, possibly in black...

Which is really what I was going for. I originally was just going to switch over to the 4th gen RAM badges because I liked the hard lines and bold look.

Then I looked at the back of a Toyota Tundra, and I really like the small manufacturer name over the model...

I did spend about an hour walking around my truck with everything taped on, moving it an inch left, little down, little up... Getting in the truck and turning it around to see it in the shade instead of the sun... Pretty sure all my neighbors thought I was crazy by the end.

I looked at it higher and didn't like it as much, I thought it flowed better right along the line... It might have looked better if I showed a picture of the whole truck...
