3m tape is already on the new emblems.

The trick is to use a hair dryer to heat up the adhesive from before. It will make it easier to remove. Finished both front and back in less than 20 mins.

Which I had known that trick, it took me a long time to clean up the old adhesive.

LOL. You are a horrible influence and going to make me go broke

P.S. I wonder where Mike (IceZ) went? I haven't seen him in a while.
