Hot water and some dental floss is what I used and a c card to lift the edges of the leftover adhesive

Few methods:
1. To soften the letters and glue... either kettle of warm/hottish water OR hairdryer.
2. To remove letters... credit card slid in behind OR dental floss to cut through the glue
3. To remove left over glue... pencil eraser OR tar/bug remover and lots of rubbing.

Clean car and inspect, maybe need to polish in area where badges were. Looks really good when doen though. Will post pics later of mine sans-badges!

i did mine the other day, so much easier than you think!! get some dental floss and some tar and bug remover ... ease each letter off with a sawing motion (you have to be patient rather than yanking it off), once they have come off spray with tar and bug remover and leave for a couple of mins, then wipe off ... job done
