OK, have any of you guy removed all the emblems off your 1997-2003 F-150 to get that smoothed out look??

I have removed my "sport" stickers off my rear fenders (stepside), but I am afraid to remove the "F-150" badges from the front fenders and tailgate.

Is there hole behind those F-150 badges or what? If so, how many behind each and are they very noticable? anyone got pictures of the holes before I debadge my truck? Any suggestions about this?

 

I beleive there are 2 little holes behind each badge, at least the ones on the front fenders???

 

When i had my 97 xtra cab in El Salvador, some punk stole aLL of my emblems and there are 2 holes on each emblem including the back one. If you wanna take them off, i reccomend using a fishing line and trying to cut through the plastic.

Thanks for the tip on that.

I don't think I'll take them off if there are going to be holes behind them though.

those holes suck!!!

 

The route I took was to buy three tail gate logos - had em painted to match truck - installed in both fenders and tail gate.
The locating holes are the same for all.
Total cost was around $ 120 in 98.

Even two tail gate logos in the fenders - unpainted would be better than the OEM ones.

 

What do mean when you say tailgate logos?

Are you talking about the Ford Blue oval or the F-150 logos?

Got any pictures of this?

Whats the best way to get those OEM logos off the fenders and tailgate?
Did you use a hairdryer or heatgun or what?

How much of a hassle is it to get the emblems off?

 

On my 2003 F-150 Sport, the front fender badges "F-105/Triton 5.4" were stuck on with two sided tape. No holes behind the emblems. I had to have a fender repaired after a "Pinyata Party" went awry. When I picked up my truck from the body shop the fender was bare. The shop said they ordered the emblem but it had not arrived yet. Two days later I went back to the shop, the guy peeled the paper off the back of the emblem and stuck it on. The shop said it is cheaper to order a new emblem than to attempt to peel the old one off and reuse it. It never sticks the same. So peel away, no holes to find...
