Tacky Logos on Accessories

[Chazdog]

Yup. Irks me to no end. It means 4 door and it's obviously a 4 door. I just don't like it. It's just a peeve I have. ?

I agree. Not judging those who like them, I just think my Jeep looks much sharper without

some seem to in Berkeley,.. ?

You mean, people don’t want their vehicles to look like this?

Rock Slide Engineering is another big one for me. Their sliders are really nice, but at that price point they shouldn’t have a huge logo on each side.

100% agree with this.
I would rock this bumper if it weren't for the huge die cut fab fours logo

The tiny logo is the 1 thing keeping you from running that??

I'm still trying to debadge my wheels. The dirty life logo looks plasticy and cheap. But to remove it, you have to apparently remove the entire wheel soooo.... and bc the lettering is raised, I can't just cover it up. Suggestions welcome but I have no interest on riding around with 'dirty life" all over my jeep. Logos make sense, but shld be removable imo. By far the most worthless badge on a jeep is the "unlimited" decal. It's so unnecessary and the first thing I remove.

Jenne, Paint or use a Marking Pen to color the lettering Black. They will be much less noticeable...

At least a sticker can be peeled off. Many of the bumper and inner fender companies have massive lazer cut logos. No way will I buy that stuff and some of those parts I really like. But some people love logos and labels. Unless they pay me money or sponsor me with free parts, no for me.

This. Any welded logo plates or laser-cut logo on a visible aftermarket part is an instant "no" from me. If it's a good/unique product, then others will either instantly recognize it or ask the owner what it is. Instantly makes an otherwise nice-looking build look like trash imo.

This is true. I just tried to pry them off and had no luck.

I used to work for Ranch Hand back in the 90s. Back then we put a small decal on the products that could easily be removed. When the company got sold, the new owners designed a much larger logo that they began to laser cut into many of the products. It was recently sold again, now many of the products have RANCH HAND in laser cut huge letters 10" wide and 4" tall across the back bumpers. I like this bumper, but no way I'd buy it for my truck.

They used to make some nice JK bumpers, but they were super heavy. They don't do Jeep stuff anymore. But damn, every company wants to show their name off in a huge way these days.

To me, flashy logos and graphics are more or less the car equivalent of having a bunch of fake Greek columns and shit on your house. gaudy trash.

Maybe you could drill a little hole in the middle, them pull them out with a screw or a small tool with a hooked end.

If you can measure them once they are out, you can probably find some better looking ones to replace them.

This is definitely a pet peeve of mine. My vehicle is not your mobile bill board. Goes for the dealership and accessories. Love the Road Armor front and back bumpers, but look at this HORRIBLE chrome tag (one front, one back):

I had to cut it off and now I have drilled holes in my steel bumper I had to plug. Gross x 2.

The rivet holes look better than the logos. At least you can put some black hex head screws or something in them.

And since that was such a "whiny" post, and I don't begrudge brands their opportunity to make themselves known, here's someone I think is doing it pretty well: Method Wheels. Start with a recognizable and signature style, and if someone likes them and looks more closely, they can see the brand:

I have found some great replacements.... which is why I prefer to remove them.

Since you have them already, place a screwdriver in the middle of those Dirty Life center caps and hit it with a hammer to break the plastic. Then pull them out with some pliers.
