There are no holes. Just adhesive (double sided tape).

Best way to do it is get some dental floss and use it to break the double sided tape = no scratches then clean off the left over adheasive

yes but you forgot some important steps.

heat up the badge with a heatgun or hairdryer, use the floss to cut the glue backing, pull off the emblem and use glue gone for the sticky mess.

the goo gone stuff works best if you left it on for a minute or two, use a 100% cotton towel to clean it off, after you remove all the gunk, wash it and put a coat of wax over it

I agree, I think it looks a little out of place unless you shave the side markers also. I wish it was this simple to take off the honda emblems! (without having holes)
