PIC REQUEST!! all those with blacked out rear emblems

To get it off you will need: A hair dryer to heat up the 3m pad behind it, and something to pry it off. I got a wide plastic putty knife, slipped it behind the cap, and used an angled flathead screwdriver looking thing to pry it off. Make sure to mask off around the cap so it it slips you don't chip the paint. The 3m pad will leave a lot off sticky residue so give yourself about 45 minutes to pick it off and finish with some goo off. For the cap, I got self etching primer, and trim/bumper paint. Go over the cap with 600 grit sandpaper until its a dull chrome. I did 2 coats of primer, sanding in between. Then I did a coat of the flat black, waited for it to dry, and sanded it with 1000 grit. I did 3 coats of the black, sanding in between each of them. You can do as many coats as you want though. Got a roll of 3m tape, cut out and shaped it to go along the outside ring, then lined the rest with long strips. I have pictures of every step if you want me to email them.

Soo how exactly do you get this thing off of there? I was in the garage for about an hour unbolting bolts with no results. Is it really just on there with doublesided tape? Seems cheap. I need some help from those who plasti-dipped theirs. How get off? How put on again? How mask middle circle?
