    In responce to Steven and Keith all i did was get a hair dryer and go over the badges for a good 10 mins to soften the glue up. Then get an old credit card or something similar (must be old and not used no more as it destroys the card) and jus run it behind the badges.

    If the glue is soft enough they should just come straight off. then to remove the glue still stuck on the car i used, though i dont really recomend it but it worked for me, a VERY LITTLE and i mean VERY LITTLE dab of white spirits on a cloth. This breaks the glue down abit and then i just gently used my finger nail to scratch it off.

    Then to finish it all off i got some T-cut and really rubbed it in over the badged area to remove any last little bits and to blend it in if there was any deviation in colour.

    End result should end up like mine

    P.S i wont be held responsable if you use white spirit and your paint comes off!!!!!
