I've always been able to easily remove emblems by sliding dental floss behind them and sawing the adhesive. But the chrome panels on the side of my g are being a little more difficult. Anyone out there ever remove these or have any other suggestions/ideas? I'm open to anything. -Jimmy

Found out for my self, thought I'd share...heat, the answer is heat. Surprised to find a glue underneath them, not mounting tape.

There is a glue under the chrome that holds it on. the gentleman before me is correct,heat is the answer. I had the same problem when I did mine. After I removed them.I used a 4.5" angle grinder w/ stripping discs to remove the glue and paint with ease. I got the dics at the local Menard's Home Improvement Center. The part #9682 and it is made by 3M. Hope I could help. It made short work of stipping the glue and paint.
