This front badge is a tough cookie to remove i thought the two pins were retained by self gripping washers, dont recall any glue!!

Mine is a loose cookie and removable.
It's not attached at any way. And the strange thing, it doesn't fall out when driving :-k
I can lift it out easy with 2 fingers and place back again... As you can see in my avatar :thumleft:

But it got 2 pins at the back indeed and it glued into place (normally that is), so I think a bit of heat might do the trick.

Heat up with a hair dryer, use a debir card to get behind and lift carefully.
The heat breaks down the bonding agent so works perfectly.

Then got rid of the residue with either baby oil or tar remover

A bit of t-cut to get the paint colour right and your all done :)

If its a UK model both the front and rear badges are held by glue and x2 pins that are part of the badge. These pins are then held in by little rubber grommit things.

If you have an import, only the front badge has pins with holes in the bodywork, and the rear badge is just glued on :)
