The 991 is so new, I hardly see this being an issue.
I've seen many a 993 (1995-1998) badges removed. Some color difference, and after a good paint correction (wash, clay, wash, polish, wax/sealant), it becomes a non issue.

One tip is to make sure to pull the fishing line away from the paint. As you are sawing through the adhesive pull at an angle toward the lettering. The line will scratch the paint. I have never needed a heat gun, heat from the sun or engine. If you take it off when the car is new, you probably won't anything but rubbing with your fingers. I follow up with a clay bar, polish, and wax/sealant.
Most people won't like the badgeless look. People tell me I need one all of the time. I don't like badges. The lazy detailer in me doesn't want to clean out the badge every time. Plus my towels catch on them. Dare I say, I even took my M3 badges off, Audi rings, S2000, etc.
