Exterior Door Emblems
Good afternoon,
I was curious about those decorative emblems on the outsides of the doors that run parallel to the ground and say TRAILBLAZER on them. Are they just double stick 3M or are they riveted/bolted through the door?
I like the cleaner look of the doors without the emblems, similar to the SS. I'm not one of those losers that upbadges a vehicle to try and look cool, putting SS logos and grilles and other stupid nonsense on there.
Any information would be amazing as I'm looking to do a full debadge of the beast at some point. Liftgate emblems, doors, LTZ on the pillars, etc. and would like to know what kind of job I'm about to tackle.
Thank you.

Hey ===> watch VEHCOR ( https://www.youtube.com/@vehcor/videos ) and learn the secrets to removing badges - or putting them on correctly - in his videos.
I really become spellbound just watching this guy ......

I remember when I debadged my 2008 Impala LT. I waited for an incredibly hot day, parked in the sun and used WD-40 and some dental floss (mint) to remove all the trunk badges. Looked good.
Fluffy like a porcupine!But --- BUT --- I'm a fluffy guy!
Oh --- be still my heart!
Are you going to do paint after? Might be some color differences?
No paint. Going to leave it as is and let all the highway dirt and exhaust dirty the beast and blend the colors.Are you going to do paint after? Might be some color differences?
Nice, let that dirt take care of it, I like your style!No paint. Going to leave it as is and let all the highway dirt and exhaust dirty the beast and blend the colors.
I peeled the side panel on the drivers side door (with "Envoy" on it). Only because it had started to peel on its own was was starting to scratch the car when the door opened.
I bought some 'Goo Gone' off amazon to clean the glue off the car but sort of got lazy and still drive around with one missing side panel with some glue on the door.

I'm trying to slim down the "extras" a bit. Badges, emblems, running boards, roof rack, etc. I've used the Goo Gone stuff before with mostly positive results. WD-40 worked in a pinch and that minty dental floss really seemed to cut through like a hot knife.Nice, let that dirt take care of it, I like your style!

I kind of thought the car looked better with the side panel after taking mine off, but I get what you are going for.
I had brought floss with me to use but ended up using one of the plastic trim tools used for popping the inside door panels off. the dental floss seemed too thin and kept on breaking if I remember.

I didn't think to use a trim tool! That's smart! It's meant to get into close spaces without damaging softer surfaces. Thank you for the tip!
