1.Leave car in the sun so the badges can heat up.
2. Take dental floss or fishing line and slide it little by little underneath the badges to detach them from the adhesive that holds them to the body of the car.
3. Take some goo gone and apply it to the left over adhesive that is still stuck to the body of the car. Let it sit a couple minutes to loosen it up some what.
4. Take a soft cloth rag and rub all the left over adhesive off the body of the car untill it is all gone. Use more goo gone as needed.
5. Take some wax or polish and with some elbow grease, buff the debadged areas to a shine for a nice finish.

Did you do this to debadge it?
1) Heat it up, 2) use some dental floss and slide it underneath, 3) use some Goo Gone.
Is the buffer really necessary? did you use it?

as for the 02-03 A , i never noticed it was larger then the 99-01's until u mentioned it. how would u install the A, whats a good substance to hold it down?

)My friend TommiGSR has a ABP TL-S and completely shaved his trunk and filled the holes as well... it looks pretty good but IMO i like it with just the 'A'
