Removing Rear Deck Turbo Emblem
Ordered an almost black Turbo emblem for the rear deck... to match the black tips from FDM and black center HREs..
Need to remove the chrome looking one..
I remember reading that you can heat up the emblem with a hair dryer and use dental floss behind it to help remove it... If my memory serves me..
Any thoughts?
Thanks

Gary, that's a good method to remove the turbo badge. Parking the car in direct sunlight will help the "warming" process too.
Any residual sticky stuff can be removed with cirtus degreaser. I'd also recommend giving the rear deck lid area under the badge a good polishing (with the PC) and top layer of wax, since the badge will not impeed your results & progress.

It is amazing how much wider the back looks without the black breaking up the flow of the rear when looking at it.. The speed yellow is a perfect match...

Yes, heat it with a hair dryer. Dental floss works, especially if you manage to get some WD-40 to drip down behind the emblem. Make sure to wash it off before sticking on the new one
