Thinking about Debadging my corsa tomorrow and just wondering the best way to do it.

Also im just wanting to move the CORSA and put it alone the bottom where my boot handle is. Is it possible just to re stick the letters?

Best thing is a card or something but will take off/ruine the sticky pad behind, might be a way of saving it but i doubt it :/

Dont think so but chances are you'll break a letter off

Best bet if you still want them is probably to buy a new one off ebay or from vaux! But some people may have saved them!

The Corsa badge from a C looks better if your going to move it, think there about £8 from vaux

No one said heat yet? Use a heat gun. Will save blood sweat and tears

Hair dryer as already said but you risk damage with a card. A piece of fishing line works better imo

I used to use a hair dryer, then realised it was much easier to boil the kettle and pour it over it.

Boiler the kettle as said above would be the quickest and easiest way.
Its getting the rest of the glued on stuff off thats the worst part

Boilin the kettle won't effect the paintwork or anything will it?

No. It's an easy way to do it and then just carefully scrape off.

If its red then it will turn pink if you pour a kettle over it. My VW red did anyway
