Rep Power: 0 hair dryer is ok but a heat gun is faster,blow hot air on the decal untill its warm and peel it off,wrap some maskin tape or whatever on the tip of a flat head screwdriver to pry out the emblem,do it gently,u dont have to heat the emblem,P.S the emblem is not made of metal,after the decal/emblem is removed,wash the area and wax it,the markin will stay for few days ,if it bothers u,,just dont look at it hard.

Edit: Thanks to the rest of you, who actually try to contribute something worthwhile to this site. I'll try the hair dryer trick sometime this week. I have to find someone who has a hair-dryer though. Hmm ..

Rep Power: 0 i used some cloth to cover a flat head screwdriver and took it out, but had some problem getting rid of the the tape. but at least i found it its very simple, just wet the cloth and cover the screwdriver, then like u did with the emblem try to scrape the tape off, but SOFTLY its gonna take a good couple mins but it will come off little by little, remember SOFTLY

Rep Power: 400 Mine was just a sticker, so it peeled off and I goo goned the spot. I've heard the BMW guys shave the emblems with a hair dryer and dental floss. Heat it up, then slide the dental floss underneath and it should pull up. Dental floss is kinder to the paint than a screwdriver, maybe that's why they do it like that. Goo gone what ever junk is left and wax the spot.
