heating it up only makes it slightly easier. just take some dental floss and work it off. then peel all the goo off and wax it.

heat it up with a blow dryer and begin to peel. since its already hot you can take the glue stuff off too easily

why would you want to debadge it? Do you think it looks ugly? I thought it make it look more classy.

The 3.2TL emblem rests on the right side trunk edge, but there's nothing on the left edge. Looked imbalanced to me. I took mine off, and I like the cleaner look of the trunk now.
