Do you have any pictures of your truck? I'd love to see this new style in the same color as mine. The Dodge site doesn't really display it as dark as it looks on my truck.
From the picture posted before, the new Rams don't seem to compliment themselves as much without badges. I think on your truck a little blending of colors may be required. However, it does make the door look nice and clean.
But just doesn't look so nice with the black bumper and chrome grille with no other chrome to accent the grille, but otherwise a really nice truck.

Planning on de-badging mine once the weather warms up, but I wanted to ask about suggestions for my dealership badge. It's not a badge, it's ... stickers? Like a vinyl transfer maybe? I'm pretty sure it will peel off if warmed up with a heat gun but I wanted to ask if anyone had any experience with this type of thing first.

The dealer sticker should be easy... just your nails and some goo gone afterwards.

It all really depends on the color of the truck, I did it to my dakota, well except 4 the hood emblem cuz i like it but my dakota is black n i like it all completly slick lookin... I work in a body shop so i just used a heat gun but yea it its a hot enough day and ur in direct sunlight u probally could just start pullin it back but ur going to have to buff the area to complelty get rid of all the residue.

That's quite the font there. Maybe you can bring it down a level or two?

i pulled the "RAM" off the sides of my '09 (before i even got it home!)
unlike in the video above, its just a sticker type adhesive.
i used dental floss to saw it off, then just peeled the residue off by hand.
when done i cleaned it up with some lighter fluid.

i only did it so i could letter the truck for business, but i does look cool without the badgeing.

Mine was missing a HEMI badge so I had the salesman get me one. I think the two tone red TRX-4 looks much better with badges than without.

Now a solid black, blue, or white truck? I would debadge.
