I know this is a silly question, but I have got new badges on my BMW for the bonnet and boot. So how do you remove and fit new ones?
Do you just take a flat screw driver and take it off and then fit on new ones with some super glue?

Im not sure on the boot but on the bonnet, the badgehas two bits (cant think of the word) on the back that push through two holes in the bonnet.
If you open the bonnet you should be able to see the rear of this and can push it with a smal screw driver of something from there.

** PLEASE DO NOT PRISE IT OFF WITH SCREWDRIVER FROM THE TOP AS YOU WILL ONLY DAMAGE THE BONNET **

Hi Another way is to get fishing line pull it under the badge and pry off.Mind and wear gloves as the line will cut into your fingers.

If you do use a screw driver be sure to wrap the tip in a cloth so it doesn't become sharp or harm the bonnet in any way, you just have to becareful....
