theres a sticky back plastic ring on the back of the badge - the best way to get it off is to heat it up with a heat gun and use some thin fishing wire to pry it off by sliding it behind the badge !!

Nah, just do what I done and pull it, the pad stayed stuck on the car but only took about 15-20 minutes to get off using my fingers and some Autoglym Tar Remover.
