Should peel off pretty easily.. Got a pic? Not sure which kind of logo they put.. If its just pinstripe material on the bottom left of you trunk that should just peel right off, then clean and buff.

In fact, just take it to the dealer and tell em to take if off for you!

Tell them you'll keep it on if they agree pay a yearly advertising fee of $1200/year. Make it autorenew if they don't cancel.

That's a bargin based on the number of hits/views that will be seen by people following your car.

If it's a badge, search for threads about using "floss". If it's a decal, I used a fingernail--pull gently at less that 45 degrees from the surface once you get an edge up. If you don't hurry, there may be no glue left behind. If you have glue, just rub with your finger like it's an eraser. Follow it up with a wash either way.

If it's stuck on, you can use WD-40 along with the dental floss or fishing line to help release the adhesive and get the goo off of your paint. Be careful not to harm the paint and thoroughly wash it off immediately when you get it off.

When they first took it off there were a few marks, but they came right off.. but I used my good looks and talked the guy into buffing off everything
