Are you talking about the stingray emblem on the side of the car? If so, it removes easily with some heat and some fishing line (someone stop me) or dental floss without damaging the clear coat.
Fishing line. Yes, fishing line eased under, then rip gently with up and down sliding action while pulling it through. Gently!
I'm into modifying a new Mercedes-Benz van's unwanted exterior accessories, and rustproofing the areas, and fishing line is what you need. Been You Tubing Owl Vans in California, that's where I learned it.
Personally, I like the Fish.......

Slow and easy heat from a heat gun or hair dryer, dental floss, remove fish, prep sol or alcohol and "very soft cloth " or alcohol pads to remove goo, then wax . Slow and easy !! SIMPLE and EASY !!

Make sure you get your fishing license in advance, and keep it in your glove box. You don’t want to get pulled over by marine patrol. The fishing line to use is Spectra Pro Braided in a 15# test, color-matched to your paint for best results. Once you get started and hook up, go easy. Be patient and let it come to you.
Also, you should decide in a advance whether you’ll catch-and-release or keep. Some people actually mount them.
I removed mine - just didn't like them - I used dental floss to cut through the foam adhesive, starting at the tail. The residue was removed with citrus goo-be-gone. Each side took about 15 minutes. Zero sign that they were ever there. I kept them so when I sell the car, they next owner can restore the look to factory if they want to.
