Some people use stuff like goof off or goop off forget whcih it is or any other type of compound that is used in the same way. Just make sure it does not tell you clearly not to use on paint. I am hoping for obvious reasons.
To get the emblems off check on here for different ways including dental floss. Try a search or "flossing the hamburger" I think that was the name of it.

Dental Floss = FLOSSED BURGER
Takes a minute to floss it off. Just work the floss behind is and saw it right off. There's no way to damage the paint that way. Use your fingernail to scuff the rest of the gu off then get some cleaner wax and that should take the rest of the residue off and leave you spanking clean!
FLOSS THE BURGER! There's a thread on here someplace titled Floss the burger if I remember correctly.

This very easy.. to take the emblems off i used dental floss and then used hair dryer to kindda heat up the remaining glue and used LIGHTER FLUID to wipe it off. it just came right off with no scratches or anything. also you cant get hair dryer by your car just using lighter fluid would work too but will have to rub for little more. but it comes off very easily..good luck.

sig pic too long
hate to bug you, but could you make your sig pics go vertical? with them going horizontal, it screws up the page layout. if you don't have a high resolution, you have to keep horizontal scrolling to see all the words because they don't wrap due to the wide image. thanks!

Are you going to lower that POS anytime soon?
hehe...see you Sunday if it doesn't rain too bad. My damn wheels better be here by then, it's been like 2 weeks! **Hand hitting table...Argh!!!**
I just did this last week, I used fishing line to floss between the emblem and the car, then I picked about 90% of the glue and crap off with my fingers and then used "goof off" to scrub the rest of it off...
looks pretty clean now
