To be honest, I just purchased the emblems and took it over to Platinum Motor Sports and they did it for me.

Did you witness how they did it? It doesnt cost a fortune, or does it? Cause I think people normally use the hair dryer technique to easily remove the glued on tape of emblems.

The "L" is a tough one to debadge. It takes some patience, a heat gun/hair dryer, and some floss. You've got to start on the middle of the emblem at the corner of the "L" and get that lifted off first then thread the floss under the ring/circle and work off that part of the emblem. Not too bad, but definitely not as easy as the others to debadge. Painting is easy, there's a DIY guide if you do a qiuck search you'll find it. Good luck

This is how it looks to me if you are selling the car and im buying it. the car had a hit from the back and you had to fix the trunk and paint it. The guy who painted it forgot to take the emblems off thinking the buyer wont notice the different. just my 2cent. This is serislly how im going to think
