How do you get the logo clean of the red paint. I want to look like a chrome finish.
Any ideas will help

Many online retailers sell billet or chrome grill emblems (check ebay and such). Unfortunately I have not come upon any for the '07's yet, as I'm in the market as well....

Check the link in my sig...
You can get either plain polished billet aluminum, OR the chromed billet aluminum version. Chromed is what I've got - it looks fantastic! Part number 96500C. Drilled with multiple stud holes on back for use on nearly all GMC's. Pic of it on my truck right here. If you want to keep the factory emblem around (in case you wanna put it back on later), just be careful then you remove it by pressing the middle prong on each "tang" as you push it out. It DOES NOT pry out! But first, I'd recommend you remove the 6 (I think it's 6) bolts along the top of the grill under the hood to give you some wiggle room, because I had a heck of a time getting my hand / arm into that space to work. Well, technically, I could get it in, I just couldn't get it out.
Still, only took maybe 10 minutes to put it on once I figured out how to safely remove the factory emblem.

NICE, so this is a stock (OEM) part? How much?
Thanks,

Get it from www.autoaccessory4u.com
No, it's not an AC Delco / GM part or anything - totally aftermarket from a manufacturer in CA. I paid $62.95 for mine. I love the look, and was really wanting to find one that'd fit a GMT900 (like I had on my GMT800 Denali). This was the only place that replied to my inquiry of whether it'd definitely fit a 2007 Denali. Maybe I can put up a better picture or two this evening...

How long have you had the logo on the truck. Will you have to polish it.

You should never have to polish it...except to get bug guts off!
This particular emblem has only been on around 2-3 weeks. My prior 2004's emblem, which was not the chrome-finish one, was on for 2.5 years, and I had no issues with regard to finish (or anything else for that matter). It gets clean when the vehicle gets cleaned, no special care required. Install it and forget it, really....
