De-badge the tailgate?
Has anyone debadged the tailgate and left only the ford emblem?
Pictures??
I took off the "flexfuel" and the "texas edition" badges and thinking about taking off the "F150" also but would like to see how it looks first. So If you de-badged your truck please share a picture and if it is silver even better.

I'll see what I can dig up. < 1998 is pre-digital for the most part, and the photos are probably buried somewhere.

I used a heat gun and a nice sunny day. (Warm/hot Sunny day with direct sun for a while works the best.) Then I used a small flat blade screwdriver and without touching the trucks paint lifted the edge of the emblem till the double sided tape released. It isn't taped down a lot. Start from the center of the trucks side and work out board. Once I could fit my fingers under the emblem then I pulled it off with my fingers the rest of the way, nice and slow. Once the emblem was removed then I just rolled the rest of the tape off with my thumb. Cleaned it up with goo gone and waxed the area. Not a scratch on the truck and was the emblem was retaped to my toolbox. Lol

Excellent, thank you. The FX4 and Blindspot Radar stickers fell off today, which improved things dramatically... the EB tags will be next!
