New Fender Emblems For The Black Dually

A board member that is a friend of mine had his son in law make these custom fender emblems for my Black C30 Dually Pickup. I thought they came out really good. You can buy something similar on Ebay but they are made out of plastic and deteriorate after they spend a couple of years out in the weather.

They are hard to get a good picture of without better picture taking skills and equipment than I have. I am going to paint the backgrounds black to make the lettering stand out better.

The weather will be warming up in the next few days so maybe I can get them painted and installed.

Thanks guys! I think I will use the Scotch Extreme or the Gorilla double faced tape.

https://www.homedepot.com/p/Scotch-1...4-48/205532219

https://www.homedepot.com/p/Gorilla-...e-more-details

They are about the same thickness just over 1/32" if my bad math still works. That should be thin enough.

Killer Bee recommends the 3m VHB tape. "3M VHB [Very High Bond] is available in different widths, thicknesses, and colors.."

I thought I might go with this. 3M Double Sided Mounting Tape 5925 VHB 1''x15.4Ft 0.025in Thick. It is thinner than the Scotch or Gorilla.

As long as the fender surface is same contour as emblem, the thin tape will be good, but if you need a little give for mismatch of surface angle be careful or the tape will eventually release. I'd hate to lose one.

Those are great. Adding just a touch of bling to your truck.

As an old friend used to say. Live like a turtle, move slow and live long! At this point in life there’s no need to rush. Those will look great mounted.

Thanks guys! I ordered the tape a while ago. If we get a warm day after I get the tape I will stick them on and post a couple of pictures.....

Well, I finally got the fender badges installed. Seems like a shame to waste them on a work truck but what the heck, at least it's a Hotrod work truck..... :)

Looks cool! One of my friends has a fairly late model truck with the 496 in it, for towing his horse trailer. Spins the tire(s) easily. I guess with duals it's not that much of a problem?

I'm curious- what are you running for a radiator?
