Default removing emblems on side fenders

What is the best way to remove the emblems on the side fenders? I want to replace the standard emblems I got on my V6. Thanks,

I did mine by taking a heat gun, or hair dryer will work also, and warming up the emblems. Then take floss and use it to get between the emblem and the car. The emblem has a notch on the back going into the whole in the fender so make sure you know that. The floss won't go all the way through. Once u get enough cleared you can pull the emblem off. Some good gone to clean up the left of glue and you will be all set.

heat it up with a blow dryer and try using fishing line to get the emblem off.

Like everyone else said.

Using goo gone, any adhesive remover, or even 50/50 alcohol will work fine to remove any excess stickyness or adhesive.

After wiping it clean, apply the new emblem.

Make sure to wax the area after words for all the old wax would be taken off.

Yeah, I wish mine was that easy, the previous owner re-cleared over it. That SOB. He let his girlfriend drive it too! My car has a rough past.
