Title: Emblem removal.
Post by: Alexx on August 01, 2007, 08:11:13 PM

What tips can you give me in order to remove the emblems on my 1991 BMW 318is ?
It's the one from the hood and from the trunk.
I have another set of emblems and I want to put them.
What glue should I use and what tool or trick is used to get those emblems out of there?

A l e x.

That is a great link, the same one I used. Use a VERY small flatblade or a knife blade to get some initial space. A credit card or similar works great to protect the paint when prying. Don't do much prying on the top and bottoms of the emblems becase the little legs on the back can break. Otherwise, just be careful not to damage the paint :)
