I have both JEEPS and the SRT8 badge...they are easy to take off, heat em up with a blow drier and pull em off...there is a better way that I used, but I forgot what the item was called that I bought at Autozone, had some liquid you poor on it,to loosen it up, and then comes with a plastic scraper like tool, that takes it right off...works great...I am just too lazy to search right now!!!

The Jeep on the front and rear. It is very easy. I bought a 3M Eraser Wheel from a paint store here in town it attaches to a drill and all you have to do is take some 10lbs fishing line and floss behind the emblem till it comes off, if its hot outside the remaining black goo left from the emblem may come right off if not use the fly wheel to get it off it will not hurt the clear coat.


1.Fishing line to remove emblems doing a floss action behind the emblem
2.Use flywheel to remove goo or if your lucky like me the Jeep was out in the heat and the black goo came right off and used the wheel to remove any shadowing left behind, follow it up with some detail spray or finishing glaze to remove any sticky or ghosting.

They are super easy to take off, just patience and care not to scratch your paint.
