How do you remove the rear Hamburger NISSAN Emblem?
 
Hey,

I need help on how to remove the rear hamburger nissan emblem. I have a new bumper and I would like to transfer that over to the new bumper. How would you go about removing it and placing it back onto the new bumper?

Use the search feature, in the DIY section.

I have been using google and the search bar but nothing has showed up. All I see is removing the 370z emblem but nothing on how to remove the nissan hamburger emblem in the middle.

If it were me, I would use a pice of dental floss to remove it, and to reapply it I would use 3M VHB tape.

I used a hair dryer to heat up the adhesive and slowly and carefully pry the burger from the bumper

heat gun with a thermometer and fishing wire does a good job

I used fishing line after I let the car sit in the sun all afternoon. Some goo gone took care of the leftover adhesive.

A heat gun and one of those hard plastic interior panel pry tools. Put something soft (eg, leather) at fulcrum point between paint and pry tool. Take your time. I haven't done it, but I watched the body shop when they changed my rear bumper cover.

A plastic flexable bondo spreader works the best.
I do this at work all the time.

Any 3m double sided tape will work good you should be able to pick it up at a auto parts store or hardware store.

Autozone sells 3M super strength double sided tape. Stuff is crazy strong. Great for this sort of thing.

Not sure if you've done this yet but this one works as well.

Let your car sit under the sun for 20 - 30 minutes. Spray slightly soapy water on the hamburger and completely cover with plastic garbage bag. The bags will cling to it. Ensure full coverage. Let it sit for 20 - 30 minutes. These will loosen the adhesive. With a fishing line (or with a dental floss if the adhesive tape has softened enough) run it and slice through the adhesive tape until you are completely through. Hope this helps.
