What resources are you looking for???

- A blow dryer or heat gun
- Fishing Line
- Two healthy and strong thumbs
- Some 3M Adhesive Remover or Rubbing Alcohol
- A good paint polish

Heat up the emblem to loosen the self adhesive tape behind it, use fishing line behind the emblem and "cut" the tape so the emblem comes loose. Use your thumbs to remove the remaining bigger pieces of tape residue. Use the adhesive remover or rubbing alcohol to clean the adhesive completely off the paint. Then use some good polish and polish the paint. DONE!

Is this what you were looking for?

If you'll use a 3M adhesive eraser wheel you'll save a tone of time AND your thumbs. That adhesive will come right off in now time.

Yes, this is what I was after. The best and easiest way(s) to do it. I don't know about easy, but maybe the best way.

I tried with fishing line on my side moldings and it kept cutting into the plastic itself no matter how thick or thin of a line I used. I Debadged using Goof-Off, some plastic Spackle knives, and a 3M eraser wheel.

GET THE ERASER WHEEL. Save yourself the hassle.
