Best way to remove rear rotary crest accent?

What is the best way to remove the rear rotary crest accent? Should I heat it up with a blow dryer?

Thanks!

Buy double sided tape. Get some goo-be-gone and remove the excess tape residue, then retape with OUTDOOR double sided tape.

I thought I read in an earlier thread that the Mazda "M" crest in the center of the trunk was "posted" in, meaning there would be holes showing once removed, and only the RX-8 emblem could be removed with fishing line.

Staff?

You are correct MP3Guy....rx-8 emblem is the only thing that can be removed

everything else has holes but I am sure they know that...
