They look great! How did you rettach the plasti-dipped ones? And how did you keep the spacing even/"correct"?
Why reattach? Plastidip in place, use a toothpick to remove smaller enclosed areas.. Rest should peel right through

Oh, yeah! I have totally seen this done, yet completely forgot how simple it is to peel away the extra! 🤦‍♂️ (I'm still waiting for my Jeep, and my brain is a bit mushed. lol)

min of 4 coats.. 15-20min dry time between coats. Try and not pool/smother it instead add even sprays adding more each layer.

I don’t usually ask opinions but this minor cosmetic emblem thing is something I need another point of view on. See pic below.

So I’ve got a 19 Sahara. The emblems and the Wrangler decal have always annoyed me, not individually, but all three don’t match from the factory.

The Sahara emblem is a satin kinda silver, the JEEP is chrome, and the Wrangler Unlimited is both a sticker and it has black lettering.

I’d like to leave at least one emblem. I’ve considered plasti dipping the Sahara and Jeep emblems. I also thought about leaving only the Wrangler Unlimited because it would at least match my red and black colors the most.

Thoughts?

Thanks

I like the badges. But got a 23 Sahara and the factory has deleted the Sahara badge for some reason. I do agree they should be the same color

And at different angles too I’ve read for best coverage.

Looks great. If I try anything else, this’ll be what route I go.

I want to add about 6 more badges so I have enough flare....

I'm also hoping they make the key fob about 400 percent larger then it will sit nicely between cup holders.

Jeeps!
leave the jeep and get rid of the others, at least that is my opinion. The wrangler sticker was removed from mine within 5 minutes of getting home from the dealer.
100% agree. And I did the same after getting mine home from the dealer.

Ultimately DadJokes will know what to decide, personally I would have taken it off if it wasn’t the same color as the badges. If you have sticker + badges in all black or all silver it looks good.

On mine I like that it’s one line like the ‘21 badge they had rather than the second line underneath with “unlimited” or “sport” in tiny letters. Plus I dig the little flag they added.

I didnt so much debage, as just changed the hood decal lol. still need to paint or repowder coat the tow hooks. Gonna do something on the Jeep emblem to get rid of the red. i think the red looks dumb on a Punkin. My hood decal is black and bronze so i will probably match the jeep emblem to that or black.

Removed decals and badges except for the 392 on the hood and trail rated badge on the driver side since both of those have indents behind them. (Going to put black covers over the silver keyholes.)
