Whats the easiest way to remove and reinstall this? Car has supposedly never been wrecked. Funny that I've had the car for 6 mo and just noticed it.

Good luck on reinstalling hahaha removal is best with a heat gun/hair dryer. It'll destroy the emblems, don't worry though because they are the same emblems that are on the fenders and the rear panel.

Get yourself a heat gun or hairdryer and some dental floss or fishing line. Take your time and you will need to replace the 3M tape behind the emblem.

There are plenty of videos on youtube on how to remove emblems.

IF this can be done, you can't get any heat on the face of SS emblem or it will bubble and then it is fucked.
