Blacked out my logos with vinyl

[Donald Stanfield]

I have an extra set of the side ones because I decided it wasn’t worth it for me (I favor the automatic car wash and they just won’t stay and I don’t want to stress about it ). I’m happy to mail it to you ….

I appreciate the offer but I've recently noticed several other of them peeling up. I too favor the automatic car wash. It simply isn't worth it to fix them I'm going to wind up peeling them all off and finding a better solution.

No problem.
It’s seems to me that the next choices are (in no particular order);
- plastidip - easy to use and I’ve used successful before
- just leave the emblems as they are
- have the emblems removed, painted and replaced …

I’ll likely give plastidip a go although I did like the look of blacking out the side emblem faces but leaving the Rivian yellow on the sides of the letters…

What kind of a company would provide the service of blacking out the emblems? Vinyl shop? Paint shop? Powder coater? I'm curious into looking into a professional.

Well there is an option 4, coming in a month or so.... https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/threads/blacked-out-my-logos-with-vinyl.14282/post-325312

Is there like.. a waiting list one could get on for this to ensure being in the first "batch" so that, like, perhaps, possibly, if a certain company says "stop doing that" you'd not have missed your chance and stuff...

Asking for a friend who has an R1S coming in the next 3 months...

Same question. IS there a preorder. I'll pay for them now if you know the cost.

We tend not to do pre-orders unless we know we'll be supply-constrained when the product launches. We moved to a new website at the end of last week, and a couple of things weren't working, including the 'Notify me when back in stock' option, but it's good to go, so you can select that option to get an email as soon as we have them.

Asked on the site, but reposting here as I imagine the answer will be useful to many folks...

You state you do not have the model designation badging for the R1S so what is your suggestion for dealing with that? Just leave that badging off entirely?

Also, do you include the extra C-pillar compass badging on the R1S or only the side lettering?

Thanks!

Would you mind posting a pic of the c-pillar compass? For the S badge, the issue is that we started this project before the S even existed in the wild (and even then, it takes Rivian months and months to have the emblems available for purchase). I'll check again to see if we can buy one, in which case we should be able to turn things around reasonably quickly. If so, then I'll update the page to have an R1S option, but the designation badge would probably ship a month or so later, if that makes sense.

It's very similar to the hood badge (perhaps even the same?):

Hopefully I'll have our S in the driveway this week and can send a better pic then

Thanks. I'll bet it's not quite the same, the trunk lid has a couple of locating lugs, and a slight concave profile. Will see about getting one of those too.

This is great news! I'll be grabbing a set as soon as they are available. Thanks!!!

As others posted I was hopeful it's the same as the hood compass, but I suspect it's slightly different, but since it is pressed in (there's a recess for it in the panel) it's possible that it has the exact same profile as the hood - meaning it may not need to follow the specific geometry of the curve of that panel.

Actually... just going to make a post on the forum to see if any owners or wrap shops have pulled them all off and if they can confirm if they're the same or not, might be lucky and get a hit on that. Will report back if I do

UPDATE: post here

First result is that they might actually be the same...
