The earlier you do it, the less adhesive remains after the letters come off. Did mine about 3 weeks after I got it and there was barely any left. A little extra heat and it balls up and comes off easy.

Definitely looks MUCH cleaner with both badges gone. Nice video.

Thanks and I agree. I waited I think a month after I got mine to debadge. I did it to my silverado before I got the BRZ, that thing was hard to do it. Everything stuck to it because it was 3 years old at that time. This was my truck without them

Use of nails

I wasn't using nails though it looks like it. I was rolling the excess residue up as I was heating it if that makes sense?

Like @dbrandt01 said "pretty much fishing line and a hair dryer is all you need".

I used dental floss(since I had no fishing line) and a hair dryer. I just heated the letters up quickly but not for too long as they get hot pretty quick. I just moved the floss from one side to the other. Once the letter was off I removed the adhesive by rolling it til it was off instead of picking at it. It came off pretty easily and then I used mothers showtime instant detailer to get the small remaining pieces of adhesive residue. Afterward it felt like brand new!
