I started to do it today but didnt have enough time plus I was worried I was gonna break those little tabs off
I broke all but 3-4 tabs, if you clean out the sealant in the grove where the cover goes, then squeeze in some new stuff you will be ok.

I took my heat gun to heat up the old sealant and scraped it out as best I could with a flat tip screwdriver. I didnt get it all, but I do have a ball of the old stuff about the size of a 50 cent piece.

Does anyone know the steps it takes and what needs to be bought to get the emblems to look like his?

Yes, it take Patients in getting the emblems off, Some Double sided 3m automotive Tape to apply to the emblems, and a can of Krylon Fusion Gloss Black Paint . Then just the time to paint it right, I am in the process of doing the headlight mod right now, got one side finished and Gonna Finish the other side in the morning, It is a pain and takes time but cant turn back now, already got one side done.

Here's my 2 cents. I love the wheels. Painting the badges added alot to the truck. The badges compliment the wheels and color of the truck very well. But in my opinion, they somewhat clash with the chrome bumpers and grill. But then I guess you could say the bumpers and grill compliment the wheels. So I guess two complimenting colors outweigh one clash. So I guess what I'm trying to say is, I like it. Great thinking.

P.S. The powdercoated ram head on your tailgate looks mean.... and that's a good thing.
