1. Heat up the Emblem, you can use a blow dryer, heat gun, etc...

2. Use a piece of string, dental floss, fishing line, etc... to "saw" off the emblem from the vehicle.

3. If any glue or sticky stuff left, you can remove this with a rubbing compound such as Turtle Wax, Goo Gone, etc... and it will remove the glue. Lighter fluid works well too.

Note: You may use these instructions to remove all other exterior emblems.

Or you can try just pulling them off. Mine came off with no proble at all.

^^^ Yeah, same with me.

after u guys took the emblems off, could u tell they were ever there? my friend just took them off his echo, and it looks like toyota clearcoated the car after they put the emblems on, so at certain angles u can tell they were there.

no you cannot see that they were there, just remove all the glue, with liek goo gone or something

I could still tell where mine were for about six months after taking them off. It took two waxings before the spots finally blended well.

i could still tell mine were there too for a while.... on the olds symbol, the paint had bubbled up behind the logo... so it kind of took the shape of the emblem... but you have to know its there in order to see it, otherwise, you cant tell... i also took off those plastic things on the side of the car that run along in the middle of the doors.. cuz they were comming off anyway..

well my alero is totalled so i didnt care how i go tthe emblems off. i wanted them as a memory of my car so i took a screw driver and just pryed them off. not caring to much if i scratched it or left any glue behind i just pryed away..they came off so clean it wasnt eeven funny. no scraches or nuthin. :thumbsup:

Hey peroxide,
What does your car look like now without the plastic side pieces you took off?? Do you think you could post up a pic?? I kind a want to do the same thing with mine but I don't know what it would look like if I did it. Thanks

McGuire's (spelling?) Paint Cleaner works AWESOME!! I've removed emblems off about 10 of my friends' cars and I use that stuff to remove all the sticky crap off and it works GREAT!..I also took off my pinstriping and used it there too and it did well there too!

mine came right off other then the one that says oldsmobile...for some reason that one had like 2 layers of silicone on it :rolleyes:

So for the olds symbols theres no guiding pins??

nope, no pins. My rx-7 had pins in all the rear emblems. When I pulled them off, I had a bunch of holes in the back of the car.

Damn cuz I'm thinking of pulling all them off and painting them a reflective red but not certain now

why, if you do take them off just get some strong ass 3m double sided tape or adhesive or some poop and stick em back on....

yea, 3m also makes trim adhesive just like the stock stuff.

If you did take them off and painted them what type of paint would you use??

i'd just model paint.... really good for plastics, then a clear coat.

pink i assume? heh.

Or krylon fusion plastic paint. Really interested to see this color scheme. Post up some pics when you get some pink done.

hey if anybody has some pics of there car without the side door moldings could they post it, im interested in doing it but i wanna see how clean it looks and if anybody did, did you just remove them like the trunk emblems... or what?!?
