Oh, cool. I might just have to shave mine too.

Boiling water? Can't that damage the paint?

Boiling hot water on paint is a big no-no I've always heard.

its real easy to do. get a blow dryer, warm up the emblem youd like to take off, take some fishing line or dental floss and slide it down the back of the emblem.


I recommend fishing line, or non-wax dental floss. I used floss on mine, man was it a bitch...but yea, that's it really
