   They were probably put on by adhesive, so you can just pull them off. You will then need something like white spirit to get the rest of the sticky crap off from where the badge was

   use boiling water and pour it on first and leave for a minute
   
   leaves less adhesive stuff when you peel them off and they will peel off easier too

   Or use a hairdrier on it as that will melt the adhesive and make it come off easier

   i have some citroen sport badges now on the car im not too sure on them thogh now there on tbh. i changed the badges because everyone seems to think its a vtr anyway and they see the vts badges and for some reason think its a 1.4 so now they can just think what they want to think the car is
