Go to kragen or some autoshop and buy sticker remover. That worked for me.

i'd get a new emblem before you destroy the paint, unless you can do paint and body work yourself. sometimes those small details aren't worth it ya know

alright boys so heres the b4 and after... no solvents would wear down the residue so i had no other option but to shave it with a one-sided razor.. im happy with the results and have learned my lesson lol
