Idk why we got left behind in the trim badge department but i was wondering if anyone has found a 3rd party SPORT badge that closely resembles the 4 gen badge style? I found a few but the lettering is a smooth sweeping design, im looking for that hard corner style, know what i mean?

Rather than this

I was also thinking, if i dont find a badge i like, get a bed side decal like the gen 1 has. I think some even had it near or on the hood?

How do feel this would look on a gen 4?

Get with rebadge design im sure theyll make it for you. I recently ordered a custom glovebox badge, havent received it yet but there are some other guys on here that have used them with nothing but good things to say.

Most of the aftermartket "Sport" badges seem to be in italics.

Here is another option for you though. Little less of the italics look and without the bit of red.

Just checked them out. They seem like a good starting point except im terrible with designing custom, i have zero artistic abilities.

Yup...and that badge is metal, not plastic.

Thats awesome, i was expecting a bait and switch with a high shipping cost to offset it. I can part with a couple bucks for test fitting to see how i like it

Edit: shipping times are 30-50 days. Yikes. Well i ordered one

I've ordered from them before and the shipping time is hit & miss. Sometimes it's taken the entire estimate and other times it's been 2 - 3 weeks.

Post pics once you get it. I'd be interested to see how it turns out.

This is what I did to mine: 6VS41HA5AA (<$10) on the left, and 82214234 (about $23) on the right.

looks great but for me i have this weird thing about symmetry, as in, its either badges or its decals populating the same area. The sides may have decals while the tailgate has badges but when there mixed, i get like an eye twitch

Its just a tick and i have and nothing against anyone elses taste or preferences.

That being said, i like that sport decal. Its classy and looks like it would be OEM

Both the decal and emblem are OEM; that's why I put the part numbers in my post.

I like the white one, had a 98 Dakota sport with that decal on the door, I like it on the bed. Very nice throwback IMO.

I put the 5th gen 2019 Ram 4x4 and Sport tailgate badges on mine. I always felt the tailgate needed another emblem on the drivers side to balance it out. When I noticed the 2019 Canadian Sport had a badge there I ordered one. If you’ll notice I also installed them lower on the tailgate flat spot versus in that “trench” up above.
