If you don't want them anymore...I'd be interested. I believe tooth floss will do the job.

Yup Thinking of removing this myself Im going to keep the S2000 badge but think it will look better without the honda badge.

When I was looking for an S I actually wanted the 'Honda' badge on the wings so I dont know why I have changed my mind.

I also want tp de badge the front and rear badges entirely but Im tempted to fit the Red Honda badges I bought first to make sure.

Never got this dental floss and rubbing with stuff.

Boil a kettle of water. Pour the water over the badge slowly to heat up the badge, the badge's adhesive foam and the bodywork and it removes easily with no work.

Yup. Boiled kettle sorted mine out. Just remember not to go steaming (pun not intended) in with bare fingers immediately afterwards. Boiling water is hot.

I used boiling hot water as well....

just keep pouring hot water onto the badge moderately so that the adhesive absorbs the heat, it'll be very much easier when the adhesive is hot... when it cools down, it'll become sticky again....

also, the more heat the adhesive absorbs, the less leftovers you'll have left on the body...
