I balanced it out with a NISMO sticker on the other side.

to make sure you dont mess up the paint. well time and patience works for me. the left over glue sticky crap has to adhere to something otherwise it will just move around like gum. for me, i used paper towels to let it adhere to it then a cloth to hit the last of the residue. use alot of pressure but only let the towel hit it. terry cloth works as well as paper towels due to the texture of the terry cloth. just cheaper and easier to use a paper towel for me. i had the whole 350z emblem off and glue gone in 30 minutes however i have debadged three vehicles previously and have experience.
as to the person that said you can use goo gone and used lightly, i highly recommend you dont listen to that person. it takes everything off. it took the die color off of my hot tub cover when i used it to remove tar from the roofers after a hurricane caused me to have my roof replaced. that stuff works great but putting it on your car's paint, well just go to the body shop and ask how much it would cost to repaint the trunk after you get done messing it up.

It just takes some common sense when applying goo gone. COMMON SENSE!!! here's some pics to whom ever is interested. lol
