Lookin nice did you guys take them off or just leave the emblem on.

shroville Feb 23, 2009 10:09 PM

What is this technique you guys are talking about Acetone? what is that?

joshspoon08 Feb 23, 2009 11:42 PM

I left mine on the truck and taped them up good with blue painters tape and newspaper so if it ran it wouldnt get on the paint http://i347.photobucket.com/albums/p...OWDAY09036.jpg shroville, you can get acetone at any parts store or even walmart or lowes it takes the black paint off the emblems, i used qtips and paper towels it just takes patience and time but imo it was well worth it

that look really good, think i might do mine this weekend. do you have to tape off the XLT decals, or does it not bother those.
