    Super easy to apply! It uses a wet application, so you can move it in position.

    Weird, I peeled mine off about a week after I bought it and they didn’t leave one speck of residue to clean off. I was out there all ready with a blow dryer and Goo Gone, and all I used was my fingernail to get em started and just pulled em off in seconds with no effort.

    Took mine off then installed these. Much better than the stock with red 4x4 .

    The basics
    Get rid of them, didn't like the red contrast to the lunar rock color. Removing was a pain, ended up going to a body shop and having them polish the area for $30.

    I have a lunar rock - what was hard to remove? I thought you could use a heat gun and then peel it off slowly and then remove residue with rubbing alcohol and persistent rubbing with a shop rag.

    I like the silver against the Midnight Black.

    It depends on how old they are. I peeled mine off with just my fingernail days after buying it new and it left no residue and came off like nothing.

    Are these “port” installed and not done in the factory in Baja?

    I removed my silver side decals this weekend. I have black replacement decals to install but I'm really loving the look without anything there.

    Park in the sun for a couple hours, peel ugly sticker off then use 3M adhesive remover. Couple coats of wax on the newly exposed paint and you're gold.

    Take them off everyone that cares already would know its a offroad and people that dont know dont care anyway. I would shave all the emblems and badges makes it look clean and different

    All in the eye of the beholder. Personally, I like these trucks without the decals/badges

    I got rid of mine the day my dad first saw the truck and asked why it said turd on the side. Enough for me.
