Side Badge Removal ?
^^Should work or at least lessen the effect considerably.
I had a hard time with my side badge adhesive as well. I just kept at it with a microfiber cloth and some rubbing alcohol. Elbow grease and alcohol and alot of patience.
Sorry to hear about your painstaking efforts returning a negative. I've got the S and 2000 badges put away. I don't mind sending them to you if you want them.

well after seeing pictures and removing my front and rear badges for ricks replacments i came to the conclusion that this is not the oem adhesive. My best guess is that its super glue...
so the new plan is just to buy side emblem replacements and recover the glue residue....

Got a tool at the parts store(auto zone) just for that. Cant for the life of me think of the name of it though. body man told me about it. One end looks like a pencil eraser, only bigger. the other end went in my drill. Worked like a charm and removed every bit of the adhesive without as much as a scuff.

I used a heat gun to soften the glue and rolled it off with my finger. used goo gone only to remove the very minor stuff at the end.
BTW use the heat gun very sparingly, you don't want to bubble your clear.

it did come off, not to mention that i buffed it out afterwards.
very long process, but looks a lot better when its done.
