Default Finally got around to debadging

Had nothing to do all weekend so I scraped up the guts to debadge my truck, it was recleared with all the badges still on it at some point, but you can only tell in 2 spot which is the drivers cab corner and the little LS symbol by the drivers door so I left that one on for now. Took one of the z71 emblems off to see how it looks with out........sliced a layer of clear off with it so I got to get that fixed some how. But heres some pics, dont mind that its extremely dirty at the moment.




yeah I know the 35's still are not on yet....hopefully I can do them in the shop at school this week

Im not sure, came off with the sticker when I slid the razor underneath it

As for the interior paint I sand all the old paint and primer off the plastics, and Im in the process of reprepping them, and I met a guy on gmfullsize thats a local and a painter so hes doing my front bumper cap, mirrors, dash bezel, switch bezels and the peices around the door handles all for 200 bucks, and might smoke my tail lights too

Would of continued using the heat gun but it crapped out on me , thought I read of someone using the razor with out any problems....probably just get a new z71 sticker to cover it back up, unless I can get it fixed for cheap and it looks good
