Question 2006 Accord

My 06 Accord has an "Accord" name plate on the back left of my trunk. I would like to remove it. Does anyone know if this is just glued in place and easy to remove with some WD-40?

Thanks

ok this is what i did with my 93, wait for a sunny day, let back of the car sit directly in the sunlight for about 15 minutes. then take a hair dryer or heat gun and spend another 15 min. just going back and forth over the badge. then take some fishing string, about 1 foot of it, and hold it like your gonna floss your teeth. put the string behind the corner and slowly pull to the side while moving the string up and down. thats how i did it on my car. then after that badge comes off their will be some sticky stuff left on the car, just roll it off with your fingers. that should help. let me know if that worked for you?

All honda badges are appllied with double sided tabe, the the "H" Logo on the rear will leave two holes on the bumper

Simply heat it up with a hair dryer (be careful not to burn the paint) and take fishing line and swivil from side to side, you can use bug and tar remover as well as a light compound to remove the hazyness and glue residue.

You will probably laugh, but peanut butter is a natural glue remover. (peanut oil)
