I just had to pull the emblems of my Z to mount the '69 Z/28 emblems. I used a blow dryer to soften the glue on the back side and peeled them right off. Then I just used my fingernail and WD-40 to clean off the remaining glue. NO SCRATCHES or harm to paint at all. You'll need to re-wax the area when done, but I ran mine for a week or so without ANY emblems and it looked like a 6-cylinder grocery-getter.

You can use a hair drier and then apply a fishing line on the edges to peel them off...BTW, will you be interested in selling your badges to a fellow board member (that would be me)?

For getting the glue off try 'Goo-Gone' it works great at this and has a ton of other uses.
