the letters themselves will peal off...but not the adhesive tape. you want to heat it up so it losens up. and you are using the dental floss to get as close to the metal as possible. most of the tape will come off but you will need goo gone to get the rest

METHOD I:
Take a heatgun and simply heat the emblem. After a minute or two the emblem should loosen up and you can peel the ebmlem off.
METHOD II:
Use dental floss and slowly saw through the adhesive.
With either method, you will need to use GOOF OFF in order to safley remove any residual adhesive.
If you decide to go all out and shave the entire rear, I created a how-to for the hamburger HERE.
Shot sucks, but nonetheless:

ofcourse you can reapply, some 3M tape should do the trick, (or you can purchase the letters at any nissan dealer thats already have adhesive on the backs) just take proper measurements of where the letters are located, write them down and throw the measurements in a bag with the letters, put em in the box with all your stock stuff (bc any smart modder always keeps all his stock parts) and your good to go.

fishing line works too cuz when i did mine the dental floss kept breaking- 8 lb test should do the trick. and goof off is a must
and i was wondering why 5th gen usually leave the burger? it was the first thing to go on my max. is it because the license plate frame is cut for it? i think MetalMaxima's is hot- just my .02

did anyone have problems with paint when they debadged? I'm nervous that the glue will leave marks on the paint, or will take the paint with it when it comes off. Also, that the paint under may be faded. If I see this, can I just reapply the badges?
