Easiest Way to Remove Front grille ZL1 Badge?
Hi,
As the topic title says - what's the easiest way to remove the ZL1 badge from the front grille? This one...  I have a painted replacement one ready to go on as soon as I can get the original removed  Thanks

I would try and remove the cooling plate and the hood latch. You may be able to get your hand down there if not, I'd assume removing the front bumper.

Thanks - I've figured it out now though - I wasn't bothered about damaging the outgoing one so just got some fishing wire behind and pulled it off - real easy in the end - new one is now on

Guess I saw this one a little late LOL...
Long screwdriver down through where the hood latch hole is to put a little pressure on each tab so they release while pulling on the bowtie from the outside. Pops right out one side and then the other side.

Yeah a little late for me now haha, but good for anyone else wanting to do this - I broke the little tabs on 2 of my letters but it didn't really matter to me as they were not being reused anyway. I don't think I have a screwdriver long enough anyway!

Binford has a new grille emblem removal tool. Guaranteed to remove even the most stubborn grille emblems, like that pesky gold bowtie. Start it on SLOW SPEED....apply gently to grille area, wait 5 seconds and you're done...
