So glad you took off that cartoon looking trailboss decal off! You can buy a factory black and gray one to replace it but looks so much better without that red. Also, my 2021 Trailboss is black on black and I plastidipped all my badges black. Looks awesome. Another thing I did was dark smoke my rear tail light above the cab to match my tail lights. Thanks for your videos.
I have black Trailboss and did this and installed Z71 black emblems. Heat gun, I used weed whacker trimmer wire to pull emblem off, definitely need the pinstripe eraser wheel with drill attachment (like $13), wax and buff. Great video. Thanks for the education!
For those looking to do this, get yourself a bottle of Rapid Remover off of Amazon. Completely safe for the paint and literally melts any left over adhesive so you can wipe it away. (After using the eraser wheel, of course.)
Looks awesome! One thing that I think would look really nice is if you had a custom made 6.2 emblem that you could mount to the grille, off to the side somewhere. That way, you can maintain that clean look and still let everyone know the beast you have under the hood.
Hey bro just curious you still running an AFM disabler for this truck? I saw your previous vids for the disabler you were using for your 2018 Silverado, just curious if you are still using it. Just ordered one myself from range technologies
I like the look. I have a silver Trailboss and debadged mine and removed the Trailboss sticker as well. I dig the clean look! The inlays will make the rear end pop.
Beautiful truck buddy, I have a 2020 Sierra 1500 with the blacked out body and love it. I have the Dark sky metallic as they call it but the badging for me doesn't bug me it looks fine and still turns heads.
Hey bro do those wheels and tires fit my 2021 gmc sierra 1500 elevation 3.0L turbo diesel. please help like to buy those wheels for my truck, let me know what i have to do so they can fit please
The truck looks sick!!!!! Quick question. On your 18 did you ever have wheel bearing problems when you did the leveling kit a wheels and tires? I did a 3 inch moto fab kit and 22x12 with 33's on my 2015 ltz Z71 and right after I experienced a hum and vibration in the front really bad at certain speeds and I'm told it's a bad bearing. I only have 56k on the truck
Hey buddy! Odd question, I’m shopping for my first truck and looking for a z71 2018 similar to your old one, can you recommend that truck? I’m lookin at 18 Silverado and 18 ram big horns. Appreciate you man!
I have a set of extra Silverado letters in black for the tailgate if you want them. Matte black. Also Tried the black emblems but decided to de-badge for the cleaner look. Too much going on in the back with all those badges and the tailgate insert
So I just got my new mustache piece for my 2016 Silverado. After royally fucking up the factory one, I ordered another one. So fair I’ve sanded it down with some 300 something grit sand paper and sprayed It black, let it dry for a day or so, and then sprayed it white on top. Using the black as an acting primer. So far the white has adhered to the black very well, next step is to clear coat it after a day or 2 of drying in my living room. Then it’ll be time to smack that bad Larry on to my truck and see how it holds up to the elements. Which that’s my main concern, how will it hold up to rain, dirt, pebbles and pressure wash. Hopefully the white and clear coat adheres to the black paint really well.
I bought black badges to replace all the chrome ones and it looks real good! I just need to replace the trail boss sticker. I have a pearl white truck as well
I watched another guy black out his badges using some kind of film and a heat gun and cut off the excess. Looked really nice that way. Then again, I am trying to order one so I might just get the Dark Essentials package and then do that to the Z71 badge.
I think you should adjust the D badged everywhere else except for the tailgate I left the tailgate the way it was . I have a 99 Toyota Tacoma pre-runner that’s white and ID badge everywhere except for the tailgate and I like it
My truck exactly like yours but in production i cant fucking wait!! Following you everyweeks you gave me a couple good ideas 💥💥Keep your good content man !
Definitely black badges or all off. I'm thinking of removing the 4x4 stickers off of the bed of mine it's a Z71 as well but thank god the Z71 is only on the front floor mats.

Looks a lot better. I’d take running boards off next and paint tow hooks white or black
I was thinking the exact same thing then I looked at your TH-cam profile pic and realized our trucks look very similar. 😂😂👍
take OFF running boards? LOL
@@SOCOMJOHNprobably gonna lower it too 🤣🙄
@@BB_Rail lmao right.
I chose to plastidip my emblems black and love it! Love the way the RECON taillights look!
Man I hate when people take the trailboss badge off these trucks, BUT idk if its the reverse level or what but the truck looks RIGHT.

I completely debadged my Trailboss.
Z71 badges were a PITA.
Then had the entire truck ceramic coated.
Dude your truck looks way cleaner!! 🔥🔥🔥

The beast is dead right now.
Just did mine last weekend. Those fender badges were brutal!
No shit! Gotta buff !
Does the value of truck go down whenever you remove the decals and badges?
I De-Bagged my Grey 2021 RST and love it. Yours looks awesome De-Bagged!
Did you put a leveling kit on your truck? what size tires do you got on your truck?
Looks so clean, no badges for me also! Not even the Chevrolet in back. Nice truck! 🤙🏽

This truck has changed my opinion on the new body style, looks so badass
Truck looks good with the stickers and emblems, but everyone has different taste. The emblems are bragging rights kinda.
I like the look. I have a silver Trailboss and debadged mine and removed the Trailboss sticker as well. I dig the clean look! The inlays will make the rear end pop.
Got a link for the eraser wheel you used to clean up the adhesive?
Thanks
Just looks like a regular Silverado to me. I like the Trailboss decals.
First thing i did was peel them gaudy stickers off
Good thing it’s not your truck
No badges except the 6.2.Kind of a badge of superiority🤟
I actually like the trail boss or z71 stickers on the bed. But I agree the massive z71 badge had to go.
Excellent tutorial of how to remove badging!
Looks super clean. I have a question what size tires are those and did you lift or level the Trooper truck?
It did make it pop just a bit more. Do you remember where you got the taillights?
Those eraser wheels are totally safe to use? Just obviously not too much pressure I’m sure?
Love my Silverado debadged,looks clean man!
For the Trail Boss sticker on the rear, you might be able to find an identical one in black, I did that for my 2017 Z71 stickers
a trail boss sticker on a z71?
@@adrianb7452 Nah, a black Z71 sticker
You can. I've already found them online. I'm blacking my Z71 out with plasti. Hate the trail boss sticker. Looks so cheesy.
You can get a black and Gray factory vinyl decal if you want. The red is what’s so out of place
what 3m wheel was that yellow one. ive looked everywhere and cant find it
Clean. I think black badges will look though too
Look's cleaner without badges. good job,
I always like debadge look for that clean smooth. Looks great 👍🏾
Super clean I
May have to debadge my Rst bro thank you for the video leave it naked looks a lot
Cleaner my friend
Started on mine I have the maroon trailboss. Looks clean. I like it
Do u ever put tire shiner on ur tires to protect them
Big difference, looks nice.!!
This truck is too clean 🧼 I love it
What size lift and tires is this? Thanks in advance.
Beautiful truck buddy, I have a 2020 Sierra 1500 with the blacked out body and love it. I have the Dark sky metallic as they call it but the badging for me doesn't bug me it looks fine and still turns heads.
What size wheels and tires are you running sir ?!
What wheels/tires lift do you have on this
Can somebody tell me why the trail boss don’t come with fender flares? The AT4 all do and trucks always rust there first
You’re achieving better mpg 😉. Emblems and stickers were affecting the weight and Ariel dynamics of your truck 😎
Hey bro do those wheels and tires fit my 2021 gmc sierra 1500 elevation 3.0L turbo diesel. please help like to buy those wheels for my truck, let me know what i have to do so they can fit please
Did you wrap your handles?

Appreciate you man!
Always making your trucks look sooooooo good, And clean!
What size are the tires and what brand are they
Should’ve left the trail boss and I’d replace the badges with black badges. Don’t really like the debadged look
Then don’t do it. He likes it.
Why watch a debadging video then
In all honesty I have been looking at other trucks but you may have just changed my mind.
Where did you get the white and black Chevy emblem
I replaced my Z71 with black. It looks good. I have the blk hood scoop from factory.
Looks amazing!! I just got my rst a week ago and ive been debating on doing this since before i got it lol. Definitely going to do this!!
Do it!
Whats your mpgs like with the new wheels and tires?
The trail boss and the z71 are nice but I definitely don’t like the plain lane badges on my tailgate
I did my badges with Plastic Dip.... They came out amazing for only spending $5.00
I have a set of extra Silverado letters in black for the tailgate if you want them. Matte black. Also Tried the black emblems but decided to de-badge for the cleaner look. Too much going on in the back with all those badges and the tailgate insert

Do you ceramic coat your truck
I’ve gone through so many different z71 decals on my ‘10. Currently have 14+ z71 decals in black but already missing the clean look again lol
I bought black badges to replace all the chrome ones and it looks real good! I just need to replace the trail boss sticker. I have a pearl white truck as well
His isn't pearl white.. why wouldn't you dip them black instead? My high country emblem is staying.
35’s would look good on this rig
My truck is debadged and I love it
1st thing I did to our new 21 Trail Boss was remove the decals. No regrets!
Dude that thing is sick
What kind of exhaust is that ?
I watched another guy black out his badges using some kind of film and a heat gun and cut off the excess. Looked really nice that way. Then again, I am trying to order one so I might just get the Dark Essentials package and then do that to the Z71 badge.
Paint tow hooks white!
Were ready to see a 9 inch lift!!
Kinda looks like a work truck now
What is the name of that tool you used to remove the doble tape of the letters or baches?
3M eraser wheel
🔥 Absolutely love the clean de-badged look!!
Wish my ‘08 F150 was that easy...😔
I think you should adjust the D badged everywhere else except for the tailgate I left the tailgate the way it was . I have a 99 Toyota Tacoma pre-runner that’s white and ID badge everywhere except for the tailgate and I like it
She’s looking good brotha!
Running board brand?
My truck exactly like yours but in production i cant fucking wait!! Following you everyweeks you gave me a couple good ideas 💥💥Keep your good content man !
Hey buddy um when are you going to put a bed cover on it
Looks sick! Def gonna strip mine this weekend.
They make colormatched led tail lights for the trail boss
Definitely black badges or all off. I'm thinking of removing the 4x4 stickers off of the bed of mine it's a Z71 as well but thank god the Z71 is only on the front floor mats.
Looks so much better
Anyone k ow what running boards those are?
They have some black and silver TrailBoss stickers on eBay that look factory but without the red. Might be just the touch it needs
Very very clean
What wheels are those??
Look so clean 👌
Tinted licenses plate cover. $12 at autozone. Makes a difference.
True but here in wa those are cop magnets my mom got a fat ticket for one lol
@@connertodd3569 I’m a cop here in KY. We don’t give a shit. Lol
Gloss black wrap the rear slider plastic
Chevy approves debadging the silverado, so nobody knows what brand truck is broke down on the side of the road
I'm doing a similar build to your last truck with my 18 HC lets see how this turns out
Soooo much better!
We size are your rims?
looks way better but it would look even better with some 14 wides
Do you think 2021 Silverado tow mirrors will look good on the the trail Boss?
$20 on amazon, flat black trail boss replacement stickers. Best money you will ever spend
Super Clean!
your house is so nice
Day 465 of asking him (not really) lol but Petition to lift the Trailboss 6 inches or more who is with me 🤟🏽🤟🏽🔥🔥
I like chrome 😂
