shaving emblems, Now with write-up/how-to!!!!! Options

[6strngs]

I'd like to remove the "toyota" "celica" and "gt" emblems off the back, and just leave the middle 3-ring toyota emblem. from what I know (and I very well could be wrong) the middle emblem is the only on that would actually leave holes if removed, and the others are held on by some kind of double-sided tape? so how do I go about removing them?

I'd like to go for the shaved emblem look for my new hatch, but I want to practice with my old hatch right now so if I screw anything up it really doesn't matter.

use a jair dryer, heat up the emblem, which will loosen the adhesive under it. then use dental floss, or fishing wire, and start.....flossing it, or kinda sawing it, do it in a ncie slow steady motion. dont pop the emblem off, let it fall off.
when it falls off, then use some goo gone, and start rubbing it off. use a rag, or a sponge or something, or jsut use your thumb. and once all the goo is gone,m be sure to thourghly clean the surface.
