Removed the Hood Telluride letters yesterday afternoon. I let the Telluride sit in the Sun for a few hours and used some fishing line to remove the letters. They came off easely. The residue from the glue also came off easely with som adhesive cleaner. Took maybe 15 minutes. I think it looks a lot better without the letters.

Mine aren't off yet since I put the hood deflector on but eventually I'll debadge the front. I may put the Nightfall lettering on instead or leave it off completely.

It does look better without it though.

Yes,
Very easy, use a hair dryer on the letters or let Telluride sit in a Hot Sunny Day for a few hours. Buy some Nylon Fishing Line or some Heavy Duty Dental Floss. Slowly move the Line or Floss under each Letter in a see-saw motion and they will come right off. Gently remove the left over black resedue with a slow rubbing motion. Took me about 20 minutes for the whole procedure.
