best thing to do is get abit of fishing line behind the letters coz it cuts straight through the sticky stuff then use a rag an hair dryer to get the sticky stuff off the boot

I cut a bit of cotton long enough to double it up, and then just kind of sawed through it.

Then all I used what an old t-shirt and some autoglym intensive tar remover, followed by a bit of scratch-x.

Took me about 10 minutes.

Is it the same with the main VW badge? Or does that one leave a hole in the boot??
