    That seems to be the trend on here if you've read the "What have you done to your 2nd gen..." Thread today.

    That would be great, the only problem with that is that if I ever decide to sell it, the next owner may not like the look of it, and taking the stickers off would screw up the paint. But thanks for the suggestion!

    Peeling the stickers is bone simple and cleans up in a few minutes with Goo-Gone with no permanent damage.

    ^^^This, right here. Take off the chrome emblems and stickers, get it detailed, and keep that thing super clean! It'll look more badass than James Bond in a suit.


    Not exactly. Stickers are actually pretty easy to remove. Even the bed decals are fairly easy. It just takes a little patience and a little Goo-Gone. Once you're done, clean the area with a little car soap, a little polish, and a coat of wax, and you're good to go!

    Or the easier way: It's your truck, so don't think about what the next owner will or will not like. If the next owner doesn't like the stickers, let him/her deal with it.
