debadging my car

[kwingy1]

Hi people,

I am interested in debadging my car, what is the best way to remove the clio badge off the back? It will also leave holes am I correct?...what is the best way to fill these?

alrite kwingy im pretty sure this is right. If u wanna do it urself rather than a bodyshop, remove the badges using a hairdryer, to heat the glue a little, then take them off. Mask over the hole and cut careully so the hole is there but surrounding area is masked. Then weld or use a chemical metal to fix a penny behind each hole then fill the hole using a sandable filler(P38) sand this down so its smooth to the boot,then prime and sand, then spray and sand then laquer. it saves sprayin the hole boot, but gettin done by a pro will always come out with a better finish.

hey thanks jam...er sounds rather complicated how much do you think this would cost for a bodyshop? I am a clio newbie as your probably guess!

I think ill have a go at mine myself and if i f**k it up, then pay a bodushop to get it right
