Heat it up and you can use fishing line to get in between the car and the glue for the decals. If you try to take off the Acura logo, I believe you will be left with a few holes. <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by skUnK2jdm &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">ok ive searched and have not found it yet, I was wondering if i can remove these decals w/o any damage to the trunk? and if so how?? are they taped on?

just use floss or fishing line like others said. if you heat it up be careful could potentially mess up your paint.

Heating helps. If it's a warm day, you won't need to though. And no, heat from a blow dryer is not going to mess up your paint. After you paint a car, what do you do? You heat it/bake it.
