Default this is an easy one...

I just bought a civic DX, both of the emblems are ripped of the back of the car. How can i get that shitty adhesive off without screwing up the paint?

Most parts stores will carry various adhesive removers specifically for this. 3m products are always good.

3m makes an aerosal adhesive remover that I used to remove the decals off of my fairings on my bike, worked awesome. Goo Gone sucks.

heat it up with a hair dryer, spray some liquid on it, wipe it off.

something like that should work

Goof off did a pretty good job on removing the adhesive from my dx emblems. I have to look really close to tell it was ever there. Try some of that aerosol stuff too. I'm even thinking about getting some to finish mine off so I can't spot it.
