Removal of 318i badge

[Zayyan]

I'm bored of everybody knowing I'm a 4-pot loser so want to take off this badge.

Last badge I took off I used a steaming kettle and a piece of card to prise it off, though are there any methods more friendly to the fragile (red) paint?

Cheers

hair dryer?

I took my golfs 1 off this way, came off clean.

Dental floss, wax ones. Run behind the letters with a little sawing action.

Then a little white spirit to remove the remaining glue/gunk.

Be sure to pay attention when scrubbing the glue/gunk off after and not scrub with the green/rough side of the kitchen sponge. Especially important after you've had a couple of smokes and then decide its a good idea to do some car stuff!

You must watch that crap my ova half does with Aneatha Bimbo.

Similar to the two above, i used cotton with washing up liquid, in a sawing motion. the cotton will snap if it gets snagged so shouldnt damage anything. and the washing up liquid lubricates like the finest KY.

Too true

And yeah mine used to be quiet (£1k head rebuild 30k miles ago), but then I dared to go over 3,000rpm one day

Took the badge off anyway (with a combination of the above ideas so thanks for the input) - still a bit of ghosting(?) of the outline of the badge but you can't really see it unless you're looking for it.

I think it looks a lot better, much more clean. What do people think?





Next job will be to sort the single tailpipe out with a nice shiny twin exhaust trim. That sounds so council but I'll do it proper, honest

[Zayyan]
