[rb513]

is debadging illegal? lol

[rb513]

is that a serious question? no its not illegal if its for realz :D

[tinkerbell]

well cause i was looking it up online and some other site said it was illegal in some states....

[InitialG]

I don't really see why it would be illegal. I've been to around the US and I've seen plenty of debadged cars around. Maybe it was just recently made illegal in some states???

Usually the dealer decal is a vinyl decal and can be removed with your fingernail. Try a corner of one of the letters and see if you can lift it with your fingernail. If you can you can remove the decal by lifting a corner and SLOWLY lifting it away from the paint -- one letter at a time if you have to. Then when you get the letters off use some wax to clean up any residual glue -- plus it help help make it shine when you're done.
