How did you go about taking the old emblems off? I know dental floss is a good method, but being that the emblems are indented, I've found it hard to get a good angle to saw under the emblems.

Mine still haven't updated since the 11th and I'm starting to get worried.

I used a heat gun and dental floss as well. I started at the left edge of the emblem and worked it up and down until i got about a 1/3 of the way through and then was able to pick it up and lift it by hand and the rest came apart easy.

Customs can take several days. They'll come. I order from around the world all the time and sometimes items clear customs the same day and sometimes it takes several.

be VERY careful if you use a heat gun. Use short bursts and tape around the emblem. Try not to focus the heat on the lip of the indent surrounding the emblem or you'll fry your paint.

Why do yours look so much glossier than mine...

Mine came in over the weekend. They look great!

I'm leaving to go out of town for a few weeks, so it will be early-November before they get installed. Pictures to eventually follow.

pfdaxe · 10-15-2012, 07:09 PM

Mine arrived today........

Well, sort of. I wasn't home to "sign" for them, so now I have to go to the PO tomorrow to pick them up

Jasonle · 10-15-2012, 07:56 PM
