Fishing line....... Work it through the double sided foam tape for the emblems. Clean up with goo gone.
The bowtie can be a little tricky depending on where you want to separate..... The gold plastic piece is prone to breakage and is taped and hot glued. The chrome bezel under that is sticky taped to the gate trim and easier.... see above. Or paint it in place...... easy. Just mask properly for overspray.

Not far. It's a wash bay. All I had to contend with was the water catch under the car.. but they all got about a foot or 2 back. I only lost one chicklet.. A&P will be getting them no charger here soon as I get a chance to get to the post office.
