what colour is your car russ? different colours have a different effect - red can be a problem for fading, as can yellow, nothing a bit of t-cut can't sort out though

have no idea what that colour is!
i had no problems with my Heraldic (dark) blue when i took mine off on friday, quick clean and its pretty damn good. thats on a 99 so you might be able to get away with it. but as said, t-cut should sort the problem if there is any

I used a hair dryer to soften the glue behind the badges then used a flat steel ruler with masking tape over to not scratch the paint. You could improvise and use something else.
Then i peeled the sticky glue off with my fingers.
What stayed on i used White Spirit.
Total Time Taken.
10mins Top. That also includes fitting some shiny new badges.

RE:
I used dental floss, by sliding behind the badges and then slowly moving up and down from one end to the other.
I then T-Cut the rest, now no one can tell where the badges once were.
Also took about 10 mins, if that for all four.
Got the front proffesionally done as bolt going through the grill.
One of the best mods to do.
