My wife definitely did not understand why I wanted to start pulling emblems off and sanding on a brand new car, but oh well.... I was going to pull off the other emblems, but ended up doing plastidip over the red "R/T" and I think I'm starting to like it more than what it would look like completely debadged.

I purposefully didn't go super dark on the lights, but from certain angles it does look pretty black. I did a comparison show with the running lights on compared to the wife's Jetta.

That looks great.

Mrs Flex thought I was nuts too.

I debadged it 2 days after I picked it up.



It's getting tint and clear bra tomorrow.

I just sprayed some adhesive remover over the letters, let it sit for a few minutes then used some floss to pry them off. Then just clean up the residue with more adhesive remover

Was it you that said you were planning on powder coating the stock wheels too? I remember reading Somebody was going to....

Not really a fan of blacking out the entire rear. It looks much better in my opinion when you tape off the racetrack and keep that the way it is and just black out the middle part of the rear....i don't know...it just ends up looking washed out and dirty when you do the whole thing like this....personally I think that all that needs to get done is removing the Dodge from the back

The bright red racetrack tail is stunning in person and stunning at night, i would not do anything to mute this LED :nerd2:

@FLEX, Have you considered relocating that SRT badge like this...


that looks really cool, but if I saw it in person I would immediately think the person upbadged their car

I don't really see this big difference calling out an "up badge" on a ScatPack vs 392...the are literally the same engine and on the street these cars would be GLUED together performance wise...I know I know...adaptive suspension (really just means you have softer setting options) and slightly bigger brakes aka probably stops 2 feet shorter from 60...

Posering a hellcat, now that's a shameful offense. But if my engine has SRT on it...all of my setup is SRT (albeit carry over for some things), shifts as fast as "track mode" on the 392....aren't these cars essentially 95% the same?

Does a Scat Pack owner really wish they had a 392?!?!? Sorta, don't they already?!?! Both wish they had a hellcat.
