I've heard of that happening to older neons, but nothing about the new ones. I still have a little bit of adhesive on my trunk still from the letters, but it is coming off slowly. I also haven't really tried that hard to get it off. I will bust out the goo gone.

I don't know about the 1500 badge, ask someone with a truck. I doubt it there is a plastic rivet holding it, probably just adhesive, but I'd ask someone with a truck first to be safe.

Get out the fishing line and adhesive remover of choice. The badges come off of the RAM same as the NEON!

When I removed all my emblems and side moldings, I just used a cleaner wax, clay bar and some water. Mostly clay bar, it worked the best, and either wash your car afterwards, or use a water bottle to wipe off the residue from the clay bar lube stuff.

But I agree, I think it makes the 2nd gen neons look so much nicer. Makes the sides look so much smoother. I couldn't have been happier when I removed them.

I used a heat gun, SLIGHTLY, and some fishing line for the badges and emblems... I buffed out the paint afterwards to care for the paint.

For the Sport stickers and the Dodge Stickers onthe bed and tailgate, the heat gun worked well... just took some patience and a gentle touch. Again, I buffed out the paint really well to care for the paint.

I was worried about chipping paint but ya'll convinced me it was safe. I debadged my Neon today and it went smooth. Used Goop Off and had no problems. Thanks
