tips for removing badges on rear

[brentcd]

I'm just wondering about tips and procedures if I decide to remove the "INFINITI" and the "G35X" from my car. I had had an 05 where they were already removed and I liked the subtle look.
I have assumed that a clean plastic scraper and adhesive remover might be about it but I am nervous about damaging the paint.
Who else has done this successfully?

uness im worng andd i sure the g35 drivers will correct me but all you might need to do is heat up the letters(using a hair dryer) and then using dental floss remove them. you would probably need somekind of cleaner to get rid of the stuff or the glues left over on the car

^ Correct about heating things up, makes it easier to cut through adhesive. After I went through a lot of Floss (kept breaking), read after the fact could've used fishing line which is much stronger.

I rolled then picked off the big chunks of adhesive best I could with my thumb/fingers. Then used Goo-gone, and even some WD-40. Turned rag often while removing rest of adhesive.

Don't use a plastic scaper or fingernail (will scratch clear coat). Be sure to wash that area with soap/water once done. Then a good coat wax or two.
