Just got my 07 350. Unfortunitly, the dealership put their tag on the back of my car under the 350z emblem. It's not just a sticker. It's an actual emblem, stuck to the car. What is the best way to ge this stupid thing off. The last thing I want to do is screw up my paint. Please advise or I am going to take this to a body shop to get it off. Funny thing is I asked the dealership to take it off and they refused. Free advertising! Not like I spent 29,000 their. Thanks for nothing. I hate these people.

That is garbage that they refused, They should take it off for sure. If not it is probably held on by glue, I would go for a hair dryer to warm it and it should come off, use glue gone to get off anymore junk. The wax good luck

My car came with a stupid sticker on it too...I drove back and asked the dealer to take it off...they did no prob....if they refuse I say take a picture and send it to NIssan, and tell them what the dealer ship said. Make sure to wirte name , date and time. Include it in your customer satisfaction survey that is coming in the mail -warn the dealer one last time if you feel like it- if not-you can have the satisfaction that your voice will be heard

they should have been happy to remove that for you, the fact that they refused would have been a deal breaker for me, back to removal

fishing line or even dental floss, get it behind the ende and just "saw" it off, afterworks you can get any left over residue with goo gone or some similar product

My car hadn't been on the lot long at all, so, my emblem popped right off and left very little glue. I pulled mine off by hand after a hard rain, came right off. I guess it hadn't been on long enough to really bond.

OK, it wasn't as bad as I thought. Just ripped it off and rubber of the glue. I thought it was a real emblem. It turned out to be a cheap peice of crap. Very happy.
