Styling Debadging

Benvo · Mar 18, 2008

Hey, im thinking of de badging my car at the back, obviously not the round fiat logo but the stilo and jtd, what do i need to do to get them off and not leave any glue etc?

thinking i may replace them with these, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....m=190207164721&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=009

and have it across the top of the boot strip, ive seen it on someones elses stilo but cant remember whos. What you guys think? i chose black cos thought mite look alright with a black car but duno.

Any opinions are welcomed.

Cheers.

plenty of post on here about debadging , its really easy .

I simply used and old bank card to prise of then used a old rag to rub the sticky stuff off the paint work .

you will need to give it some elbow though

boil a kettle n pour it over them, come off well easy then

JFL · Mar 18, 2008

boil the kettle and pour the water in a jug

then pour it over each letter individually, and prise ease it off using dental floss slowly cutting into the sticky pad on the back of each letter/number

once you have done that to each letter, use a good bit of elbow grease to get the remaing yuck off

thats what i did, then painted mine and re-attached it :devil:

i think you're on about my car benvo

i used autoglym intensive tar remover, just pour it on to and they'll fall off, then with the excess, wipe of the left over glue residue. something the good ol' boiling water and dental floss leave behind

Nello · Mar 19, 2008

Use a hairdryer to heat them off.....easy in 20 secs!

Benvo · Mar 20, 2008

Yeah it was your car Oz lol! yeah thats what i wanted to do, but dint know whether to do it with black letters or not.

Mmmm. I've got to get my finger out. This must be done to mine aswell as soon as possible. Hopefully my new Mattig grill will arrive in a few days - together with 4 17" Fiat Blades.

with only the centre badge..but it's abarth badged

Kirbs · May 6, 2008

Did mine last week by using a wallpaper steamer (minus the spreader just used the hose) and my cashpoint card (which ended up slightly warped but I ironed straight). They came off in no time and I used the bug and tar remover tip to get rid of the residual adhesive.

I believe that rear badges were only put on the phase2 3 and 5 doors Stilos ad wasn't an option on the phase1's... Other changes we're the rear light clusters and the integration of the rear fog lights into the clusters.
