Trimer, just put some dental floss behind the old Boxster emblem, and floss it off, and goo-gone the glue. It's easy.

Is there usually adhesive residue left over to get off? I put some aftermarket door sills on and a little of the trim adhesive dripped on the door sill and it was a major PITA to get off of the car paint. Can't imagine if I had to do that for an entire emblem worth

The adhesive is is double sided foam tape. It gets a bit hard after a decade, but comes off easy enough with WD-40.

Did mine about a year and a half ago...

The emblem looks great. But, the color of the vehicle is hideous !
