Default Removing Badges

I just got a 1998 Neon sedan and the badges on the back are starting to peel. Has anyone taken them off? If it's not too hard how do you do it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I'm not exactly sure how they are held on but a heat gun and an old credit card to get behind them will take them off. Then you need to find some kinda of adhesive remover to take off all the gunk but be careful to not get something that will remove the paint.

Try Goop Off, it's a citrus based adhesive remover that works great.

I took mine off, I used fishing line and some bug and tar remover. It also takes a lot of rubbing to get that glue off. But it worked well, you definitely cant see anything on there now.

Eh, I posted this in one of the trade forums, but if any of you badge removers has an "S" like the one in the "SE" for a newer Neon...pm me?
