i let my emblems sit in the sun on a hot day, used 30 lb test fishing line, sliced them right off. then clean all the adhesive left behind, thumb rolled worked well.

to check that thought, open the trunk and look where the trunk key lock is, if you see studs through the trunk lid where the emblem is, then its not glued.

if you see nothing but smooth interior trunk lid inside, its glued on. and its a real tight fit. but fishing line will still get it off.
 
its probably glued on i bet it is, since its not a factory badge i dont see anyone drilling holes for the studs and i haven't seen badges bolted on cars except like pre 1970's
 
oh i always thought it was factory. it feels like it like it held on by the s and d. probably pins . ive pulled it but feels like it gonna break. i guess ill just leave it alone
 


try fishing line like the others stated unless you have a air chisel with an emblem chisel and SMART by 3M, works well and will not scratch the paint if done properly

check for studs, no studs, warm it up, cut it off. if left in the sun on a hot day, it will slice right off for ya. fishing line really wont hurt your paint. just dont pull away from the car with the line and it should come off in one piece for ya.
 
so i looked inside trunk lid and theres openings next to the trunk lock mechanism one on each side. found stud wit nut and theres another on the other side but openings are way to small to get my hand to it so its just staying there

It's hard to believe that someone would put studs on an aftermarket emblem. It's more work and labor, plus it's more permanent.
