Default Progression - Stock, Tires/Wheels - Debadged

Removed the moldings between 7 inches of rain over the last couple days. Easy to do but time consuming. Heat gun, gasoline and a blistered thumb finally got the 2 sided tape off.

I really like the looks with the molding removed.

yeah tell me about the blistered thumb. I have one too. I did mine last weekend and it was a bitch to get that tape off. ITs one of those thing that you do to your truck that you say why did i do that along time ago. Truck looks good .

Yeah big difference. I photoshopped it first had to do it then. I am going to photoshop the pin stripe now. It might be disappearing.

You will not regret removing the pinstripe, wish I would have done mine sooner.
You see the body lines of the truck the way it was meant to be without all the protective crap that GM slaps on. If they woulddo color matched body claddind like the GMC model then it would look acceptable....but noooooo.

Your truck looks great!
