I swapped my Toyota badges yesterday for some Grazio ones.
For the front badge I used two flat trim removal tools wrapped in MF cloths, warm up the adhesive with a hairdryer, insert the trim tools either side of the locating pegs, gently lever and hey presto the peg snaps easily. I did this after trying to use dental floss which didn't even scratch the locating peg.
Absolutely no damage to the paint work as a result, the MF cloths got gummed up with adhesive but they were only cheap ones that I don't use anymore.
Here's some after pics:
