It's really easy. Do a search and I'm sure you'll find 100 "how to" write ups. I bet there might even be one in the stickies at the top of this forum.

step 1 = heat gun/blow drier (dont everheat the paint, but get it nice and warm... almost too hot to the touch)

step 2 = dental floss (if the adhesive is warm enough you ought to get through it like butter)

step 3 = spend hours with adhesive remover and a rag wiping off residue (this part sucks, but take your time so as not to damage the paint.. I just soaked it in goo gone and then rubbed with my fingers until the were blistered)

step 4 = polish and wax

step 5 = crack open a cold frosty and enjoy your newly debadged ride

Don't be surprised if you bust up a badge removing it. I did and figured that's life.

Be sure to follow step 5 above....
