No screws, just stuck on, you may struggle to get all the adhesive off at first though, it took me a while when i took mine off. Once its all of give it a good polish and its good as new :D

best technique is this,

boil your kettle, make a cup of tea, then pour the rest over the badge slowly.

then take some fishing wire and work it behind the badge from top to bottom and it will come off without damage to the paint undertneath.

a bit of t-cut/rubbing compound and polish and bobs yer uncle.
