    These are cool. How easy are they to remove once they're on for months and months? Possible they will leave a residuethats tough to scrape off?

    I don’t think so, but why would you take them off?

    I’ve seen dealers put these on trucks on the lot

    Nice! Funny how such a cheap & easy mod can make such a dramatic impact on how a vehicle looks. 1st thing I did on mine!

    You’ll love them. I get a ton of compliments on the stickers, and two of my coworkers and a neighbor all copied and got the same stickers. You won’t regret it

    I don't doubt it but like I said, it's a lease so I'll have to take them off at the end of the term. And hello, fellow early riser

    Mine is also a lease (the techs complimented it- and then I started seeing the stickers on the lot) I don’t think it’ll be a problem.

    I am usually up around 5 or 6, but hurt my shoulder at work. Can’t sleep lol

    Can't recall which member I bought my reflective ones from, but got the glove box insert too. Blue for the glove box, what other color does a man need? :) They aren't too reflective though, was hoping for really bright ones. A friend got some for his truck too.

    Anyone have pictures of inserts that are a different color from your truck? I bought a set in Cavalry Blue for my Cement truck but I'm on the fence over how it will look...I know black is the safest option but I think the blue and grey could work together

    Have you checked out our Real Domed Carbon Fiber Raised inserts? They'd look really good on a cement truck. You'll get more than one look with them too. From certain angles, it'll look gloss black and then when the sun is hitting it you'll get the fibers(silver, grayish) popping. @tacopromatt has them on his cement truck.

    They can be removed by picking at the edges with your fingernail, which won’t scratch the paint. The will likely tear and it will take some time. Any residue left can easily be removed with a cleaner such as Windex.
