New rear badge

Ive been planning this for a while and just got around to do it. I had my truck debadged when I was rearended and I thought it looked way too plain so I ordered the new badge, sanded it down, sprayed it with 2 coats of Bulldog adhesion promoter and sprayed 2 coats of flat black paint over it and stuck it on. Turned out nice and I havent seen another truck with it on it.

tThanks. I wanted to do the nissan emblem on the top of the tailgate but I dont think it would look good on the black trim. The next thing to redo is all the trim. Im tired of the faded black/grey.

Looks good. I was thinking about doing the same thing to all my badges, thinking it will look good on the white. Too lazy, though

that was my problem. i put it off for a while but I finally decided I hated the way it looked completly bare assed so I figured I might as well take the hour and a few beers and get it done. The worst part was sanding all the little spots. If the badges are still on your truck, have fun pulling them all off and cleaning the truck.

with the sandpaper, bulldog, flat black paint and 12 pack it was only 40ish bucks
