Default How to remove emblam on trunk?
Need to repaint the trunk lid, what's the best way to remove 50th the badge on the 2003?

Is it glued or bolted on from the inside?

They are adhesive. Run some fishing line or waxed dental floss underneath.

A little heat from the sun or a heat gun helps in the process. Then just clean up residue with an adhesive remover. WD40 works well for this.

I just used dental floss and then rubbed the remainder of the tap off with my hand. After that I hit it with some polish and a buffer.
