Speaking of debadging, what's the best way to do that? I'd love to remove my 3.0i badges from my E53... I'm gonna replace them with E53 badges...

Heat it up (blow dryer unless you have a heat gun) and use a strong dental floss.

is there a chance of mismatch in paint color around it after all that time?

3Series... Can you recommend something to remove the adhesive residue I imagine will remain after removing the badges? I'll need a squeaky-clean surface to apply the new badges.

Thanks!

Goof off, then rewax the area since it strips any wax.
