Best way to remove badges?

What's the best way to remove the badges that dealers put on the tailgate???? In specific, the hard plastic ones.

I used a hair dryer, some warm water, and a small plastic scraper. Most guys on here will tell you to use the 3M eraser wheel and fishing line to get their badges off.

Get some 20# test fishing line. Work it back and forth behind the emblem and "saw" it off. Dental floss works, too.

I used fishing line and the 3M eraser wheel. There was a little bit of adhesive that I could not get off, and I used a Mr Clean magic eraser... took it off great. Make sure that the metal is warm a little...
