Do it the same as people shave their emblems (you can search for threads with more tips). Basically, use some fishing line to "shave" the emblem off, then Goo-Gone to remove adhesive. Do the above on a hot, sunny day to help loosen the adhesive. Polish and wax the spot to blend it in.

Might try a hair dryer to add a little heat.

Use a credit card or fishing line to get behind it to rip it off...then use rubbing alcohol to get the residue doo off
