I need to strip my existing bonnet without damaging it, how do you get the BMW round propeller badge off to refit to another without damage to either the bonnet or badge ?

Flat head screw driver and rap a cloth around the bottom so you do not damage your paintwork.

It should just prise off.

^ as above - but try using something plastic/blunt/thin , as it can easily go wrong in an instant :mad: :o :(

Thx Dan, I thought so, but needed to check as it seemed a rather basic way to do it ! :D

I've got a few standard roundels of varying sizes - if you do damage it PM me. But fingers crossed you'll be fine mate. :)

on some cars can remove the under felt and push the badge pins up and through from underneath.


Alternatively plastic spatula , as screwdriver may slip and damage paint :(
