Heat gun and patience will get it done, goo gone seems to be the choice for getting the residue off.

Filling the holes after.....thats another story.


Oh, and welcome aboard

there is a how-to on debadging, pretty much the same concept as far as the adhesive goes. a heat gun works but will bubble the paint if not careful, i use a hairdryer for that, scrape it off with a used credit card or fishing line. goo gone to get the little stuff, then use some body scrub on the rest..
