I'm thinking of de-badging and de-chroming my truck. Most of it looks easy, except where the "B2200" fender emblems are. I definitely do not want to drive around with holes there. How many holes are there if I remove the emblems?
Also, how would I go about filling them in? I'd rather not get into too much bodywork, but I might if it's easy enough. Then I could "spot paint" it with a rattle can of primer and red paint. I know it's not the ideal way and it may look noticeable. But I have a lot of small scratches and chips (all over the truck) that I will probably sand, prime and spot paint. I just can't afford a full paint job. I may do a full paint job next year, but for now, just a quick fix will do.
Another option... what about ordering aftermarket fenders? Do they come with the holes already pre-made? If they don't, then it might be easier just to get new fenders. My left fender has two dents in it anyways. Paintless dent repair will probably cost about $200. But, the truck is from Florida, and is rust free, so might be worth saving my current fenders.
