If I was 100% sure I could get it off without buggering up the paint, you could have mine for free.

there are two pins for alignment- but it's held on with adhesive - -use a hair dryer to heat up the adhesive (not too close or too hot that it scalds the paint- or your fingers) and gently lift from the tips of the flags.

You will have some residual adhesive to get off with Goo-gone, WD40, etc . . I then cleaned the surface with alcohol and positioned the new emblems.

There is a slight bend on the front - -rear is flat and no guide pins.

Work slowly and resist the temptation to use an edged tool - - it will scratch the clear coat. (ask me how I know . . .)

So it leaves two holes if I take it off? Never mind.
(It figures that the one that comes off clean is the one I was going to leave on.)

The replacement front fasica emblem will have two pins on it that go back into those two holes. Nothing will show once you affix the emblem to the fascia.

So, just to recap the discussion...
You thought I was going to take the emblem off the front of my car, give it to the OP, and then put one back on?!?

I used a piece of fishing line to saw mine off.....then I hit the pins. Grrrr. Replacement from ebay. The rear one came off clean with the string, no pins.
