just pull them off with scraper covered in cloth or whatever and then use a little prpsol to tidy up anything that gets left behind. the only badges that will leave a hole is on the front of the car

a bit of buffing with a soft cloth will get that 15 year old double sided tape off

use fishing line and pull it through between badge and panel, then just clean up the body

speaking of badges, a few weeks ago i was in a shopping centre in the food court having some lunch. i was sitting next to one of those kids rides where you put money into them. I took a closer look at the ride which was a car. It was meant to be a hot rod or something and the bonnet was made from clear plastic so you could see the engine. I looked at the engine (v8) and to my surprise 8O there were 2 vl turbo badges stuck on the engine. One on each of the rocker covers. I just wanted toi smash it open and take them :twisted:
