Move Power wagon sticker on back of bed?

[Corvette427]

Was thinking about moving the power wagon sticker to the back. Still thinking about it.


What’s weird is it almost makes the truck look longer. crazy.

Looks better in the factory location. Maybe take a long trip in it so you don't get bored and keep rearranging the furniture

good idea.

Just giving you a hard time – I do the same thing. Wish I had the mechanical aptitude to install that snorkel on mine!

I worked on cars my whole life, but I was afraid to attempt this one (drilling holes in a fender). I took it to a great body shop in the area, they did it no problem. Had to remove the fender, glad I didn't attempt it.

Instead of further back, ya just might want to consider placing the decals further up. As like on top of the roof!

That garage is sweet, but since you have that badass power wagon I think I would trade the vette for a hellcat. Lol

How much did the body shop charge you...

Not really digging either location... looks awkward. I'd ditch the decal entirely.

I would take it off the sides and solely have it on the rear.

I took my decal off the rear on my 2016 and threw into my round files. Sure like the Power Wagon chrome emblem that I replaced it with.

Yes

Pictures as requested.

Middle photo. Removed the rear PW decal and also the rear LEAR topper decal during last winter in late December. The highest temperature (per weather history) was 16 degrees Fahrenheit on the date of the photo, but still the sun was shining enough on the tailgate to warm it up a bit. It came off in large pieces. Easier to remove decals in warmer weather with the tailgate attached. It would be approximately another 6 months for temperatures to be above 72F and so I chose not to wait.

Installed the emblem by removing the tailgate and warming it inside my home prior to applying it on a cleaned surface.

The pickup trucks in the first photo are my 2016, 1998, and 1978. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.

I guess the 'grass is always greener on the other side"? My '16 Laramie is completely debadged other than the chrome block lettering on the tailgate as Grand Mesa has done in the photos above. I really also miss the cab top 'clearance lights' that were also left off on my newer truck.

I was never a fan of the Red "Splash" graphics anywhere on these trucks '15-'16 models, I believe. I know some really liked the red grill slots, but I never did appreciate those either. I guess I too am getting too old.

However, I think they got it 'just right' on the '13 Power Wagon, with the black lower, with the thin Red transfer point stripes and Matte Black Hood and Tail Gate Decals.

I think my '16 looks too plain now, and does not stand out 'loud and proud' as a PW. Especially since swapping out the wheels.

I DO have one question; on my '13, the hood decals are a flat black and would appear to be easily removable if someone wanted to, while the hood black out center section on the later trucks appear to be glossy. Is that because they are under the 'Clear Coat' layer of paint, or are they just a glossy sticker? Same question for the bed side 'Simon & Simon' style vertical graphics.
