Crod, I almost removed the hemi badges so I could gain your full respect but I couldnt do it, LOL. My opinion is that any car would look better without badges. I must admit that I removed the badges and didnt clean up the sticky mess for 3 days. The black truck looked good with black badges though. I finished washing and waxing the whole truck and within 5 minutes it started raining... Typical Houston weather

I finally pulled my Bighorn and Dealer decals off the tailgate... One pic was taken with the iPhone and the other with a "real" camera, but you get the idea....


Also, did they change the HEMI badge for '10? I noticed a lot of people have "5.7" below the "HEMI" but mine only has "HEMI".

Half way through the 2009 model they started putting the HEMI only badges on all the trucks. Some of the 2010 trucks got the HEMI only, but then they went back to the two line HEMI badge for some reason. Dodge/RAM never gave an explanation for either switch. It was speculated that when they started using the HEMI only that Dodge was getting geared to put a 6.1L into the truck and that instead of having 2 two-line badges (HEMI 5.7 Liter & HEMI 6.1 Liter) they just wanted a single badge for all HEMI engines. Of course that was pure speculation.

Don't hate! I'm sure this has already been covered but I can't find the thread. How about the front and rear Dodge badges? I know somewhere someone said the front one pops out (in two different pieces?) and I assume the rear one is just 3M tape? Can some one explain how to get them off before I go outside and bust my truck up? I want to have the black parts painted.

If you are talking about the Ram Head badges you can not remove them, well you could, but you will not like the result. The panels are recessed.

This may have been asked before and if so sorry. But is there holes under the badges?

I know some company's do have holes under their badges but Im not sure if dodge is one. Ive read on how to take them off and it dont seem like they do but cant be too sure. Would hate to take them off and have to get the holes fixed

I have a 05 ram if that helps

Thanks
