   The Citroen and Saxo badges have holes behind them, so you'd need to fill them and get it sprayed and blended in... A bodyshop job tbh.

   sticker badges (if they are stickers?) should come off with a bit of heating up, and peeling back. Then polish up area after.

   The Garage one is like a spongy sticker with the Metal bit stuck onto it, how would I heat it up? Is a hair dryer enough heat?

   A hairdryer is absolutely fine, same goes for stickers in windows Gently get an old credit card behind it and try to ease the badge off, be careful not to scratch the paintwork though.
