There are a few methods you could choose, but the one that I have found might be the simplest requires:
Heat Gun or Hair Dryer - softens the adhesive on the back of the emblems. DON'T OVERHEAT!!! Dental Floss or Fishing Line - to "saw" between the emblem and the paint. 3M Adhesive Remover - safe on your paint, spray on, rub remaining residue with microfiber cloth. Polishing Compound - to correct any defects left behind from the removal. Automotive Polish/Wax - Self explanatory. Also, you can check YouTube out and search for vids on debadging to see how the process works from different folks before you attempt it yourself. Here's an example: Last edited by Dirty Cash; 06-12-2017 at 02:54 PM.. |

I've used dental floss to debadge my car, as well. It's not a lengthy process, at all.
didn't even have to use a hair dryer to heat the adhesive. Just did it after the car sat in the sun for a little while during the first month of ownership.

I feel like I'm missing something here...you have a 35i, no line, but with trapezoidal 50i exhaust tips?
