Here's a pic for the guy that wanted to see it on a stock wheeled red L.
Thanks. I'm definitely pleased
I have got to say DAMN did the brake cleaner work well. I could do all three badges in a half hour with brake cleaner, seriously. It just melted the paint off instantly.
For anyone who is interested in doing this here is a tip... BRAKE CLEANER.

eff all that work with the q-tips.....get a friend to come over, mask off around the badges, then take a can of brake cleaner. Have your friend hold a rag under the bottom so it catches any run off before it hits the paint and spray the badges down...then wait a min, and just wipe the black off. Thats how I did mine and they came out MINT. took all of 30mins for all 3badges with most of that time being taping the area around the badges off.
WFT...I bought some brake cleaner and I've been scrubbing these things forever and it's hardly coming off...Already spent 1.5 hrs on the tailgate emblem and it's not even 3/4 done. Why isn't this working ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!! :-)
