I wanted to completely remove the Ford emblem, however there is a recess in the tailgate and two holes under it so I decided to paint it to match instead. I thought I would share the process in case anyone else wanted to do something similar. There are two clips and some 3M adhesive holding the emblem on. Once you get it off you have to drill out the sonic welded posts to get the blue pieces separated from the chrome. Then just some light surface prep and you can spray with adhesion promoter, primer, paint, and clear coat. The Cyber orange is a tri-coat paint so there is an orange base coat, then a transparent top coat with all the yellow metal flake in it, followed by the gloss clear. I used some JB weld for plastic to secure every thing back together. Then installed with new 3M adhesive. As You can see in the photos I did break one clip taking it out so I just put 3M tape in that area as well. Turned out really nice and better than just covering the middle with a sticker since all the chrome is gone.

Last week I also removed the Bronco and used the adhesion promoter, primer, black paint, and clear coat on it. Then after a wet sand and polish I reinstalled it with new 3M adhesive as well.

Looks Awesome! Well done.

Does the Bronco have holes behind it?

I'm asking about the Bronco on the other side of the tire. The Bucking Bronco

Patiently waiting for OP to show us how he removed the badge without damaging the paint.

Come on OP!! Go from hero to legend in one thread!

Not sure if it’s the same size as regular bronco.

Was the process similar with the bucking bronco? is that a bolt on or adhesive? Any details you can share there would be amazing.

I don't think I would ever have the patience to pull that off.

Looks absolutely Fantastic though!

My guess is the bucking bronco was just adhesive

Nice job
100% better then stock
To bad their is a recess, for no emblem would be great however your mod is best next option

I was wondering about this. Thanks for this! Any tips on how to not break the clips when dissembling?

If you can pry the emblem out a little bit then go behind it with a screw driver or flat trim tool to press and release the clip.
