I would like to debadge my bird...take off the Trans am on the sides. Does anyone know if these are just attached with adhesive or if there are pegs and holes. I will not if there will be holes to fill.

It's just adhesive, no holes to fill.

You heat up the molding if it's not hot outside already. The use a very thin wire or I used a skinny zip tie and heat the molding as you run the wire behind and pull it back. It should come off smooth. May leave some of the sticky residue an you can get a rubber wheel to put on a drill and wheel off the left over residue, but be sure to not push down hard or stay in one spot to long cause it can burn through the paint.
