I think this can be generalized. It's not just Jeep accessories. The whole world seems to now revolve around self-promotion.
Self promotion is perfect. Selfies,tiktok, look at me..

Are you sure they are actually SELLING that one? Isn’t that the jacket that they give out at the annual employee meeting, or to the folks who load trucks in their shipping department?! ?
Yeah, you’re probably right about that but you get my point.

Agree 100%! Those companies are going to lose sales over their logo placement tactics. Those inner fender pieces that I would actually like to install with some aftermarket fender flares are over the top on with the logo holes they laser cut in places that you don't want holes and crevices.

Same with laser cut logos in bumpers that actually weaken them. Who's the genius behind that idea? They've definitely lost sales from people like me.

DV8 is the 1st company that comes to mind. Huge logos on everything they sell, and always Lazer cut into the part so there's no easy way to debadge it.

I'd have to put Metalcloak, American Adventure Labs, and Artec at the opposite end of the branding spectrum. A simple and clean symbol vs an actual company name.

take a dremmel and sand off the logo.. Then touch up black or maybe take you a piece of Black Polycarbonate or something and cut out a circle and epoxy over the top? Hell maybe even just a industrial strength decal over the top. Once you sand it down flat that is.
Hmmm... my dremel is collecting dust and I make my own decals....

The only stickers that made it on to my bike were either sponsors or for contingency programs. Racers do love seeing track day guys show up with their bike covered in stickers though, gives us material for our jokes! ;)
Before you joke at THIS track day guy, lemme tell you...I am the MASTER at stuffing people on the inside, and I have a podium trophy from almost every track day I ever went to!

Hey Jenne. The caps pop right off with small blade under the edge. Just a pressure ring hold them on. No need to remove wheel. My letters were coming off so I had them send me new set.

Edit - you could probably buff the fake chrome letters off. ?‍♂

Haha. I used a small flat screwdriver like you would use to tighten glasses screw. Slid under edge and pulled out. Popped right off ??

By far the most worthless badge on a jeep is the "unlimited" decal. It's so unnecessary and the first thing I remove.
Are you saying the wrangler unlimited text on the side? To me that is a completely different logo and perfectly acceptable. And awesome.
It's not like its a Nike shirt/shoe. It is literally the version of automobile.

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 chose the AEG bumpers. Welded a little extra gusseting inside them, Media blasted the finish off and resprayed with Raptor liner. Took the time to fill in the logos with a few 7018 sticks and ground them smooth before recoating. I hate logos.
