I know it's still new and there are still more question than answers but I finally got a look at the R2 in person.

I am not a fan of the big raised Rivian lettering on the rear. Anyone know if these are held on with adhesive or if they have a physical holding attachment?

I'm fortunate to have a service center in my town, I've been keeping an eye on the demo drive availability but what my schedule allows doesn't have any openings :(

Most people dont know what a Rivian is anyway. I have thought about this a few times and think it's a great idea. The car would look very clean. Most lettering is held up by glue and can be easily removed. I'd do some searching online to see if and how anyone else has done it.

Basically 3M double sided adhesive tape. Park in sun, dental floss or fishing line + elbow grease. Paint cleaner/plolish + protectant afterwards to clean up fine scratches you added in process.

I hav e debadged vehiclwes before, but the R2 badging doesn't bother me. I think it might look a bit bland in teh back without teh RIVIAN spelled out as it is. Maybe just remove the R2 badge?

Maybe one of our resident photoshop wizards can give us some visuals?

I too have debadged other vehicles before, I like the clean look.

Most small badges use 3m adhesive but some have a physical connection and would leave a hole if removed. The letters on the R2 are large and stick out a good distance, I'm guessing is it's held on with adhesive but the size of them makes me wonder if my guess is wrong.

Cleaning and waxing around the letting has got to be problematic.

*I tried searching for my answer and found information on the R1 but not the R2.
