Goo gone now makes a gel..so it does not run down the sides of your car - it stays on the adhesive...so easy to get everything off...like I said above wait 30 min before attempting the remove, re wet at 15 min..

gaaaah that would have been better. not that it was really an issue, i just used a microfiber rag to keep it from running down.

Looks soooo much cleaner like that.
Now tint those windows!

How was the paint under the letters? Can you see a difference in color vs the exposed surface?

takes years to get a fade...if you do it on a car 2-3 years old, I've never seen a ghost....it's not taking a direct UV hit like a trunk or roof....

i literally just went outside and took these...dont mind the dirt, it rained last night.

as you can see, no ghost or anything like that. i was actually worried about that very thing. but its good.

Looks good! Sure is a lot easier to clean without the letters too.

i keep pondering over this... its literally the last remaining "chrome" left on the car. i plastidipped mine to see if they look better in black. so far i like it, but seeing debadged ones is making me think

Denis · 06-25-2013, 02:38 PM

I like that!! I'm thinking about taking the bowtie off the back and getting 'camaro' out there. So I wouldn't need those to let people know
