All my emblems are shaved. Well will be by the time I get it back with the V2. I think it looks better that way.

I think it depends on the color and if you kept it in the sun,reason for that is the ghosting effect

You dont even need a hair dryer. I took mine off with floss at night, when it was cold and still came out perfect. Just take some floss, might have to fold them into halves a couple times. Otherwise a single strand may break apart. After you got the badges off, take some goo gone, a microfiber cloth, dab some on there and hold it against the left over tape. Wait until it is soft and just rub it with your fingers or gently move it with your nails.

And im sure the stock wings are bolted on.

Depending on the color of your car, you might want to consider going with a "Black Pearl" emblem. My car is Metallic Black and I just put one on my V2 bumper to see how I like it and I think it looks awesome.

I tried to take some pics for you, but you can't tell much of a difference because my flash is going off.

With a hair dryer on high head you do not need to double fold the floss. Single strand never broke.

Let me take a couple in the morning when I won't need a flash. Hopefully the pics will do it justice.
