theyre stuck on. make sure you warm them up with a hairdryer or something and then you need to carefully get behind them with something really thin like fishing wire or a credit card! just remember speed is NOT your friend in this instance! and as for the boot VW badge that leaves a big hole so its usually better to get a replacement black badge or get a boy shop to do it!
hope that helps good luck

mine is on coilovers and is down about 75-80mm which is bloody low but its wicked and if you get the right set up it handles just like a go-kart and sticks to the tarmac.
