Re: Paint under emblems..
It could be shinier.
All depends how bad the exposed paint has fade away. It's a 5yr old truck, but all depends how that 5yrs was spent. |

Re: Paint under emblems..
I removed all the side moldings and fender trim from my truck and the paint was fine underneath. I just washed and waxed the area well. I used to park my truck outside uncovered for at least 4 years(I didn't have a garage or carport) before I removed the molding.
