i hate those dealer badges! i cant believe they expect every car they sell to be an advertisement for them!

remove them the same way you'd remove the factory badges.

use a hair dryer to warm up the adhesive. some people slide dental floss between the paint & badge to get the badge off. i have used a plastic card, like a credit card with good results. use Goo Gone to remove any adhesive residue.

I have bought a couple of used cars from dealers, and prior to picking up the car, I always insist that extra stickers or badges be affixed to the car, and if there are any, kindly remove them...else deal is off. They always remove :)

^^^ what he said, heat it, floss it, goo be gone, clay, seal and finally wax :)

I actually took mine off with a razor. A brand new really sharp little razor. CAREFULLY got it under the adhesive decal and slowly pulled the razor toward me while "riding" the surface of the paint. It got about 95% off. Then took Goo Gone to remove the remaining. Then warm soapy water, dry then a quick polish/wax job. Took maybe 15 min.
