And if you wanna remove the 'Trail Rated' badge or the JEEP on the grill... heavy fishing line works good... Wrap a generous amount of the ends around some pieces of wooden dowels to use as handles. Then use a "sawing" motion through the foam tape that holds them on.

Then WD40 or GooBeGone to remove the rest of tape left behind.

Agree with above!! I also have decal remover used to remove decals from big trucks (not sure of the brand though).

x2 on the hair dryer and peeling slowly. If it's warm enough, that's not even needed. Took the trail rated badge off and affixed it inside the Jeep, kinda cool. Also went with a black Jeep emblem for the front instead of chrome. Looks great!

Hair dryer or heat gun, although heat gun just be careful and just do a few quick passes. Just used my heat gun to remove some bumper stickers from the body of my JK

Just curious, where inside did you mount the trail rated badge? Any photo?

Thanks for the info everyone. I will most likely will be taking on this task over the weekend while detailing the jeep. If all goes well I am going to try to salvage the wrangler decals and move then into the cabin. Enjoy the weekend!

Totally debadged here. Rubicon gone, JEEP gone, Trail Rated gone, stupid dealer sticker gone. Just have my personalized hood stickers I added when I replaced stock hood with AEV.

Plus a regional forum sticker from another Jeep forum I'm on.

Good luck salvaging wrangler decals. Mine stretched all out of whack while during peeling them off. No heat needed. Just warm day and goo gone.
