Just buy a new badge from either Suncoast, or your local dealer. Mark off the old one with blue painter's tape. Remove the old one with a hairdryer and floss. Clean up any residue. Apply new emblem. You're good to go for another 5-10 years. They're just plastic lettering stuck on with double sided tape. It's about the smallest problem you can have, with these cars (not that they're problematic, at all). Why not use this opportunity to refresh your car's rear? Easy and actually pretty fun to do. Good luck.

What would you guys use to remove the old adhesive stuck on the paint?

+1 on the Goo Gone. I took off my silver Carrera badge and it got all the remaining residue off.

I bought a really nice costum painted badge from bumperplugs.com (not affiliated, just appreciate the quality finish).
