I saw those same exact ones. Let me know what you think once you install them if you remember to! I saw some solid black Cummins badges from Amazon, too, but ratings weren't all that hot about the adhesive and them coming apart.
I was talking about the Cummins badge lower on the fender has adhesive. How does the 2500 Heavy Duty badge come out? Are there screws under the hood or something? Honestly got my truck on Monday and it has set parked since due to kids with Covid so besides looking at the outside a few times and ordering parts, I haven't done too much searching yet.
I’m pretty sure the new ones have adhesive foam on them that’s the fix for keeping the water out of the hood, I believe. I think mine had foam on them when I replaced them with black edition ones
Did you get the new badge installed? If so, thoughts?
Thanks for the update! Was there adhesive on the back or just had to pop out the old and press in the new?
Much appreciated. Already ordered a set! Now to decide what to do about the black Cummins badge on the front side panels.
In my experience, Plasti dip/ hyper dip works great and holds up great and lasts 1-2 years before you probably want to re-do it. Holds up fine to washes even pressure washer assuming you’re doing it lightly with lower psi household washer and not crazy commercial washer.
Good to know. This would be the emblems on the front quarter panels (Cummins badge) so the brushes that spin and clean the side of the truck would be beating on it. Might still try it since it is a cheap and easy option. A friend's dad paints vehicles now that he is retired so I might also see if he could spray them with actual paint for more permanent solution.
If you take your truck through an automatic car wash I think the paint on your emblems is the least of your concern
Yes, I have used it on grilles, wheels, emblems, etc I've never had it fail. Clean and dry surface, light coats to build up and it holds up. There is a wheel cleaner for dipped wheels that works amazingly, I was going to link it for @Rockcrawlerdude on his bumper re-do for next time but I can't find it now. Gives the regular dip more of the sheen you get with the hyperdip.
