Hi,

Does anyone have any top tips to remove the rear badge on an 06 WRX. Its metal, so I'm a bit worried about getting something sharp behind it to get it off and scratching the body work

Any help appreciated!

Cheers

I used a piece of cotton to get behind it.
Work it side to side and they will soon come off. Used some bug and tar remover to get rid of the residue.

Good luck.

If you can warm the metal up with a hair drier/heat gun on low setting or something - that will aid in the loosening of the adhesive.

Also, dental floss is stronger than cotton, and WD40 or it's equivalent, will help remove any gunge left behind.
