Some of you guys have convinced me to go badge less so yesterday I did the deed and when I removed the glue residue left over I apparently scratched the clear coat. Is there any recomendations on how to get these out like a special compound or something any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Try Meguiar's Scratch X then some wax. If that doesn't work, I'd try a more aggressive polisher (be carefuly with it, though!).

 

Meguiars scratch X is good but if its still there go over it with a buff it should smooth out the laquer fine

 

Yes. One way is to put the badges back on.
