Re: CAMRY and HYBRID badge removal
As promised, my new car didn't even make it through the first night without being declawed of its badges. GONE are two (2) hybrid fender badges, one (1) Camry rear trunk badge, and one (1) hybrid rear trunk badge.
What a difference! The car not only looks sleeker, cleaner, and more sophisticated... but I'm sure that the badge streamlining will give me about .00001 MPG improvement.
Anyone want some EXTRA hybrid badges to plaster all over your new Camry?
By the way, I used "Glide" dental floss for this minor surgery. It took about five minutes to remove all badges. These were held on by a gummy substance that I'd never seen used before. It "unadhered" very easily, except for the rear hybrid badge. I thought the dental floss was gonna slice off my fingers before I was able to cut through the rear one. (Hint: open your trunk lid to do this one.) Use long, slow motions to "saw" through the gummy adhesive. It took me about 3-4 pieces of floss to do each badge. Then, you can remove the excess adhesive just by rubbing it with your fingers, and it will ball up easily and lift right off your unblemished paint.
