Good afternoon.
I want to swap my chrome 5.0 badges for black ones.
Before I go in all guns blazing and damage my paintwork, are there any tips from someone who has done it. I have had a quick go but they will not budge.
Thanks very much
Mark

Thanks chaps
All sorted without any disasters. Have to say, mine didn't come off that easy.

Mine fell apart when I removed them. The buggers are well stuck on from the factory. I used trim removal plastic levers from ebay. Then lots of spray cleaner to remove the old sticky adhesive.

My son de-badged his BMW by working a piece of dental floss down the back. I could not believe how easy it was.
