Agreed with Raikiri,

Fishing line doesn't break as easy as the floss.

Just take them off, then spray them with black plasti-dip.... it's way cheaper than buy new emblems.

Ya just paint them... But I left the back badgeless because it looks better.

Gas-line anti freeze or lighter fluid will take the glue off no prob

I would suggest using vinyl , you don't even have to remove them. Wrap, press out air bubbles, cut around with a razor, Done.

why even remove it? Just buy plastidip and paint it black while its still on the car. Remove the emblem if you are going with the badgeless look. (don't buy CF emblems on ebay, I bought one and it looked good for maybe a year and then terrible oxidation or something just ruined it.)
