Hi, the Intech OHC badge on the front guards of a AU1 are they just stuck on there with tape, or do they have pins in them.

Cheers

Only a sticker, use a hairdryer to peel it off, then apply paint cleaner.

On the AU Fairmonts it is a metal badge on the guard.

you could also use fishing line / whippersnipper cable but that tends to leave a lot of the sticker gunk behind. On the upside it's generally easier to remove the badge with.

I had the metal ones, heated them up a bit with a hairdryer, then used dental floss to get behind them and get them off. Take it slow and it's pretty easy. Don't worry about leaving the sticky crap on the paint, it comes off easily with some diluted metho. No pins behind them though, so go for it.
