I pulled mine right ouff with my fingers. It was a nice sunny day in SoCal; about 80-degrees. A little alcohol and you'd never know they were there.

Well I found this place www.youremblem.com but it looks like you can only get one type of letter and I'd like to get it in script to match the Hotrod logo socal has.Any ideas?

Smile Removal of all Emblems Swede

Removed all emblems with hair dryer. Had the HHR and the LT on
hatchback airbrushed on along with Chevy Bow Ties replacing
the square emblems on the lower front. Also had air brushing
and and hand pin stripes down the sides. Had the mud flaps
(Back Side) painted body color which makes it easier to wax.

It helps but you can do it without.

I used an industrial hot air blower (careful not to bubble the paint) and dental floss. Came off pretty easy.

You had the back mud guards painted? Aren't they rubber?

Jeez, I have one of those but I would only use a hair dryer. You only needed to warm up the adhesive not cause it to boil!
