    Default Best way to REMOVE factory badges...

    Just got my VZ Lumina (black) and want to debadge it. Rather than risk scratching the paint I thought I'd ask you guys. Any help would be appreciated.

    Yeah it's really quite easy. Just spend a bit of time cleaning up all the residue on the paint behind it and you can't go wrong

    When I did mine I heated the badge up with a hair dryer for a good 30sec and then used the fishing line to remove the badge, some bigger badges might need a few tries with the hairdryer.
    Then abit of wax & grease remover for the residue and a good cut n polish.
    Just take your time and it will all turn out sweet!
