    Hey guys,

    I found this video on Streetfire.net. A couple guys did some testing of different ways to remove the badges on the trunk of their Subarus. They seem to have found the trick.

    Check out the Video here.

    Its so easy I didnt even need a vid but that might help people that would be afraid.

    Get a nice high temp hairdryer and heat them up (always keep the hairdryer moving to keep it from burning the paint) and then use some fishing line or extra strength dental floss to pull the letters off. Use some goo gone to get them off and then polish and claybar the area to make sure it is smooth.

    Yeah, Ive gotten them off of both of my subarus, but it was never this easy! It took at least a half hour each time ive done it. But its good to know there is a better way! And hopefully this will help guys who want to do this in the future.

    Nice find. I have never done any debadging, but it really does look easy enough for just about anyone.
