1) Floss
2) only the Acura 'A' Symbol leaves holes
3) I suggest you read my FAQ which covers this and much more.

its so ridiculously easy to get the emblems off!

you dont need to heat them up prior.

no need to use wd 40 before or after

just floss em off (sawing motion)

then use your finger and rub off the remainder

use soap and water if there is any left over (which will be very little)

and then wax over to protect

the only emblem with the holes is the big "A". the others you can floss off by heating them up with a hairdryer.

Fishing line works. I used it on a Chevy Blazer but with the CL you can just pull it off. (i would not suggest it). Get some Goo Gone for glue that doesnt come off.

You guys really think it looks better without the emblems?
The only one I changed was the 'A' on the back to a red one with a carbon fiber 'A'.
