Welcome to the TR no badge club. I have seen many with no badging. Mine as well came with no badges. I asked about getting them put on. Dealer told me I would have to find a VIN # from a truck that has it and order it. Of course pay for it out of pocket too. Can't imagine

My parts book shows Badging for Big Horn and Lonestar but none for Thunder Road.
In '05 only there are Thunder Road decals available for $29.00

The line about needing a VIN is total BS. Even if they were available.
The only time you need a VIN to order parts is for "restricted" parts replaced under warranty - usually complete engines or turbos.

On another note. We have had several Big Horn Editions show up with no badges.
We just order them and submit a warranty claim. We get paid a mark-up on the part and a small labor payment to put them on.

D-Dealer??
Correct me if I am wrong but isn't the Big Horn and the Lonestar editions exactly the same as the Thunder Road, just named different in different geographical areas?? Wondering why the 05vs had no badging at all for TR's?? I know it was going to be like $35/badge if I ordered them. Dealer would not bite the cost for me and put them on. Guess I got too much of a good deal anyway. What is a fair price for the TR badges??
Thanks
Pig

I don't know.
Yes it has been my understanding that the 3 packages were the same, just named to fit the region...
So I just now did some checking and the package details list badging for the BH and LS, but not the TR.
Otherwise they are the same...???? not sure why.

But in '05 I am showing some decals available for the Thunder Road for $29.00 list.

A week after I got my 04 ThunderRoad The dealer called me up and he put the Chrome Lettering kit under my ram 1500 letters. It's a one piece lettering .Very noticable. I didn't even think about the letters until he called me about them.
