Got mine de badged.

Spent an hour or so this afternoon. Debadging the hatch. Got the GM chicklets off too. Also a good pic of the recently done rear wiper delete.

Pita to get the adhesive off the paint without scratching the paint.

Looks great! Looks like you got rid of some of the stickers too. You gonna leave the pinstripping?

I left the one sticker that says "the closer you get the slower I go".

As far as the pinstriping I'm not sure. I got one line around the doors and back. And Im not sure about doing the fenders. I have one done and one not done.

If it were mine, I'd remove them. I think it would give it a cleaner look. It's all in what you like though.

No lie there. Without the rear wiper and now the emblems gone its super easy. Makes me wonder why I didn't do this two years ago.

I know it. I'm so unsure of what to do. I like it both ways. The plus is I can buy a roll of pinstriping for five bucks and an hour of my time to lay it out.
