Default Debadging my xB...HOW?!?

Yes, I have seen mention of this before, and have done multiple searches, but could not find a how-to thread on debadging my xB. My plan is to take of the dealer badge (a plastic badge "glued" on), the rear xB, and the rear Scion badge, all on the hatch. How do I do this without scratching my baby?? Thanks for any help anyone may offer!!!

Also, where do I find that tinted grill thing that I've seen on bB's and the OKI HOST ad banner? I like 'em, and can you get them without the bB/xB/Scion badge?? THANKS!!!

you could use dental floss and jus slide it behind the emblem,, i used a waxed flat string (sorta like dental floss) b/c dental floss was too thin for my hands and it fkn hurt! u could also use a heat gun and gently take it off

Always check the Tech Section. Here's the thread on debadging, but I don't like the pry method, I prefer the dental floss. Use something that isn't sharp to wrap the floss around like insulated plier handles, etc. I think other options are mentioned in that thread.
