I debadged and move the letters around. Looks sweet. The 3M tape works great. I've been through several car wash machines and its haingin' tough!

Kind of a pain the the ass to cut the letters out of the tape but worth the 2 hours. Just popped in a movie and trimmed away, make sure you have a nice sharp exacto blade though. 3M tape is sticky as HELL.

i used dental floss...works great..but wear some kind of a leather glove...i found out the hard way that dental floss can cut into your fingers pretty deep...my pinky finger to be exact...lol...but its really easy the only one i had trouble with was my chevy badge on the rear deck lid cuz its got two double sided pieces of tape on it...so i used a super tiny screwdriver to help out a lil.

I used an old library card, just wedged and pried gently.

As with any mod, the slower you go, the better it looks.

Used a combo of fishing line / credit card for the back bow-tie...made some small scratches but they came right out with Meguiar's body scrub. Afterwards i used Meguiars Gold Class to wax out the dullness
