Take them off like any other emblem. Heat them upwith a blower dryer or heat gun if you have access to it and then get either fishing line or dental floss and work it slowly behind the emblems.

OR, you could just take the car to a bodyshop to get the badges taken off. I (being a painter) use a flat-blade putty knife to pop them off, and then we have a tool that is basically a motorized pencil eraser, and it rubs off all the adhesive tape that is left. It takes all of about 45 seconds. Floss? That could take forever! time is money... If you drove up to my paint shop and asked me to do it, I wouldn't even bother to charge you anything it's so simple.

I'd beg to differ about that. I have taken my emblem off and it takes about two minutes to take it off. So if time is money, I'd kind of waste about 2 minutes to do that at home ratgher thanhaving to gofind a paint shop,find someone to ask to do it for me, wait for them to get thetools, take them home, and paint them. That, I would probably would think that would take atleast 30 minutes atleast since I beat the majority of everybody on here does not live next door to a paint shop. But if you were to do it at home, it would take maybe 10 minutes for both with getting the adhesive tape taken off by using goop gone or rubbing alcohol.
But that is just me.
