yeah I am almost positive it has been on there since 99.....Previous owners did crappy wax jobs on the car so theres wax build up all over my emblems now and for some reason I am really annoyed with it.

if you want to take them off do this:
in the day time with the sun out... get a hair dryer and get it real hot and get a thin string and pull it down behind the emblem.

then you are going to want to go to the hardware store and get an eraser wheel it attaches to a drill use it to get the sticky stuff off it is the only way to get it off unless you want to sit and pick at it for hours on end
