Removing rear badge emblem?
Does anyone know the best way to remove the rear badge emblem with the adhesive backing? I need to replace mine and I don't want to damage the paint.
Thanks |

Heat it up with a hair drier and it'll pull right off. You can saw it off with some strong dental floss if needed.

Dental floss (heat helps)
Goo gone or equivalent to remove residue Remember to use some good glaze/polish and wax afterwards I left mine off for a cleaner look, I don't need to advertise

after removing.
Spray some goo-gone and it works the remaining glue off. Then use some Scratch-X to get rid of the dirt that built up around the emblem.
