Carrera Script Replacement
Not sure if anyone is interested in this little modification, but here goes. My black 02 Cab originally came with the Carerra script in black. This just didn't look good since it was black on black. I decided to change it to the silver script as seen in the attached picture. It's not very difficult but it is a little time consuming and you must have patience.
Prior to attempting to change the script, use masking tape to mark the exact location to place the new script. Once the new script is placed on the car it can't be moved.
The old script is removed by taking thin waxed dental floss and working it under the adhesive backing found to secure the script to the car. The dental floss will not damage your paint, and once removed use "Goo Gone" to clean any adhesive that is left on your car. Once you have all the adhesive removed, place the silver script carefully in place and apply pressure. That's it!

Thanks for posting. I wondered how this was done, and was worried about removal of the old emblem. Still not sure if I'm going to make a change, but it's nice to know how to do it if I decide to do it.
