Default Pics of the ride sans badges!

Yesterday I decided to go to Walmart, buy the cheapest fishing line I could find and just take off the last little bit of bling on the ride....those pesky emblems! I think it looks better now!





The sun was bright as hell today, so the pics look hazy

I have to agree as well why take them off, its more of a hassle then what its worth in my opinion. If you go to sell the car in the future, some people are crazy about markings and badges and you may end up having to put them back on and getting them back on may be a pain to do. They arent really flashy, every car has badges except the riced out honda's where the kids take off the emblems. On side note I like the grille and rims.

It was just one of those days....I woke up, walked outside and took a look at my ride and said "I'm gonna take those emblems off today!" so I did lol....about midway through I wasn't sure what made me want to do it, but it was too late....

Screw the next owner....I may just keep it forever!

I can't see the pictures. they get blocked at work, but i'm sure it looks nice. If you like your rig w/o emblems, that's cool

good luck!

It was really easy....30lb fishing line, some gloves, a good thumb nail to get the loose adhesive off and some actual adhesive remover to get the rest off....don't waste your time with a hair dryer...no need

I like it, too. I took the H3 and GM badges off my Yellow '06. You have already established youself by merely BUYING a Hummer. Do with it as you please !!!
