Moderators LWARRIOR1016 Posted July 7, 2017 Moderators Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 How the heck do these fender badges come off. Im getting started on my bodywork and need to pull them. I would like to keep them intact if at all possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange 94 Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 Heat gun and something like floss? They should just be stuck on with an adhesive and there's a pin to position it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ttocs Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 piano wire or a thin guitar wire works great with a little heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98SnakeHorse Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 Floss works too. That how I typically do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators LWARRIOR1016 Posted July 10, 2017 Author Moderators Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 Great, thanks guys. Ill probably end up pulling them off today. Im going to start with the floss as thats available to me right now and if that doesnt work, Ill move up to something a little heavier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prokiller Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 i just use a credit card decal applicator thing. and for the price of badges, its better to just get new ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98SnakeHorse Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 I really wish they didnt have a hole underneath the badge as I would be happy to just go without them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Number Tew Posted July 11, 2017 Report Share Posted July 11, 2017 I've had success with fishing line in the past. As noted, I would probably get new ones if you want badges still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackmage Posted August 3, 2017 Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 the heat can sometimes seperate the "chrome" from the emblem too. dont get too crazy with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serpent Posted May 19, 2018 Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 (edited) 3M weatherstrip adhesive works great. comes in yellow and black. another floss user for getting the badges off. more gentle since it is a softer material than piano wire or any other metal string type material. less possible damage to paint that way. never have had to use heat to get them off. just be patient and bring plenty of floss!!!
