How to remove Chief Emblems

Post by Tio Pancho »

Hey all, how do you remove the side Chief emblems? I want to paint mine but don't want to damage it in the process.
Thanks

You may have some luck running a guitar string down behind it like using dental floss. It's just on with adhesive iirc

I have removed them with a thin metal putty knife.

Guitar string or light fishing line work very well. Old body mans trick. Use it to "saw" though the adhesive.
