I wonder what shop would charge to fill in the holes and
Paint over them to match?
Using a hair dryer to heat up the tape helps loosen it a lot!

200-300 most likely I would think at the absolute cheapest!

Paint would be the most expensive part! That just stinks. Would a tailgate off of a 2010 fit on a 2013?

What's a safe way to get rid of the dealer sticker?

My Dealer decal pulled right off. I guess they must be cheap! Good thing I guess!

After a few hours in the sun, to get it soft, I used my fingernail.

Yeah, it's definitely a pain in the *** to remove the emblems and repair the damage, but it's worth it if you're going with new paint already. If you get a body shop to weld the holes before painting you'll never know they were there. Looks much cleaner without those gaudy pieces of plastic and cheap stickers.
