You can either use dental floss to slice through the glue behind the letters and then use Goo-Gone.
Or I did mine by wrapping a flathead screwdriver with a handtowel and carefully prying at the letters. Then I used WD40 to get the rest ofthe sticky stuff off.

well mine was on the ex part, after i did this i took it to the car wash, started washing it, and a chunk of paint came off where the ex was, about 1x1 chip, i was pissed at my self, but the dealership painted it for free, but i told them i removed thr ex months ago, and washed it about 10 times since, so i felt good i bent over the dealership

I just sprayed mine off at the carwash. Took about 30 seconds with the nozzle pointing right under the emblem & if just flew off. then I goo goned it & waxed it.
BTW it was the dealer emblem, not the EX or CIVIC tag, those might be harder.

I just did mine about 20 minutes ago. Take a piece of string and go under it. It's kinda a pain in the *** to take the stickey stuff off after though. Just use lotsa goo gone and wash it off after.
It looks much cleaner without the emblems.

if your too cheap to buy goo-gone (like me) and u dont have a wd40, i used gasoline to remove the sticky stuff. dont worry, it wont harm your paint. just be sure to wash and wax that spot when your done
