   are they just on with tape/glue, or is there holes behind them?
   
   Thanks

   theres two little holes behind each mate and you need to smooth the holes out and respray to remove em which costs about 120-150 quid. A lot fo people paint them, or rub them with T-CUT so they go black

   There are three holes behind the Citroen badge and two holes behind the Saxo badge
   
   I wanted to have my boot de-badged and the holes filled and smoothed but it was going to be quite costly. In the end, I had the badges colour coded. A lot less money spent, but the effect was still good

   how much work is it to smooth them in again and get it sprayed? Is it worth it?

   u can do it your self, heat the badged so the glue goes soft, prise them off, glue abit of metal behind them from inside the boot (a coin will do) body filler (£3ish a tube )the outside then sand down, go to halfords and buy the chip repair kit (for £5) costing you a total no more than £10 and 30 mins to do, easy.
   
   £120 is a complete rip off , i asked my local bodyshop to do mine they sed £70
