What I did for removal:

* Heat gun to heat up specific part (not all at once)
* Wax coated floss to remove letters
* repeat for each additional letter/emblem

* Automotive goo gone to remove any residue
* Wash/dry
* Clay bar to remove particles and microscopic specs
* Another nice good wash

* After that it's up to you how to want to proceed. I gave it a good polish, seal and wax with Optimum products.

Never mind - I apparently didn't see the 2nd (above) page before posting
Can you remove the "F-Type" badge lettering on the rear end in the same fashion or is that one secured via pins/holes?

The only one that has holes underneath is the "leaper."
