Stoney871 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 It will be stuck on with foam pads. Dental floss or a plastic tool are best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAPUMA Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I'd imagine its just stuck like the other badges, heat it up a bit and see if it moves. Cant you get an overlay that gives you the look you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D13 HPD 95 Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 No none of the overlays cover the chrome bit, so im going to wrap it in vinyl or paint it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4RC Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I took mine off a few weeks ago was gonna put a backlight glow on it but didn't fit :(. Anyways mines was a nightmare to get off, I just used a heat gun and some plastic trim tools pretty much snapped them all haha. Best to use a towel or something to prise against so you don't chip the paint like me, also you can get the badge of eBay for £2.99 instead of redoing the chrome, that's what I did but you would probably have to get a new DMB.

D13 HPD 95 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 Hot air gun on a cold setting heat the badge up for 5 mins about 20cm away so i doesn't affect the paint, then using an old credit card got under the badge lifted it up and pulled, the 250grit wet and dry paper, 2 coats of primer then 3 coats of gloss black and 2 lacquer job done all in one day as it such a small bit of paint to dry :) then stuck my DMB gel on top :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D13 HPD 95 Posted April 28, 2014 Author Share Posted April 28, 2014 Yep both are stuck on with 3m tape, use a heat gun on a very low setting!! To not damage the paint and use a small trim tool and prise it away gently and it will come off Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
