Default Grill badge on STI 05

Want to change the grill badge on my STI 05 from the Blue to a Pink one.
Is the Blue standard one held on by a bolt ?
Ive had a look from behind and cant make it out
The new Pink one from scoobyworld says it sticks on so thats not a problem

it just sticks on mate, needs warming up with a hairdryer and it's easier to do from behind so it's best to have the grille out.

you can warm it up and prise it out with the grille in place but you'll almost definately mark the surround

save yourself a few quid and take out your existing one, clean the paint out and spray it whatever colour takes your fancy then stick it back with a couple of dobs of sillicone.

When you pop the grill off you will see at the back of the badge, at the bottom I think, there is a wee slot you can get a small screw driver through, gently push the badge after warming it and it helps to pop it off.

I got a pink stick on badge for mine a while ago from Scoobyparts, cost me a tenner but after a few weeks I took it off cos I thought it looked gay , now I've gone badgeless!

yeah, that's the way i do it aswell some people drill a hole in the middle of the backing so you can get a larger thing in to push the badge out, but never tried this myself.

plenty of heat and gentle pushing
