The best thing to do to remove the badges is to heat them up with a blow dryer (to soften the glue) or let it sit out in the sun. Then use a thin knife or screwdriver and slowly pry it off, starting at the edges and working your way around.
You can take measurements in case you want to put them back on first if you like, but thtas up to you.
Good luck.

I would be very careful using a screwdriver or knife to take off the badges. Try dental floss, it will take a while, but it works. You may also need WD-40 or gasoline to clean the goo left over. Just be sure to wipe it off immediately after and then re wax/Zaino the area. Good luck.

If you go to the grandprixstore and look for the Trasher CAI system, they have detailed intructions there, and pictures too. Its in the under the hood section.

Depending on if you are changing the grandprix for the GTP on the trunk, I actually measured the GTP badge, found the center point, and lined it up to the keyhole in the trunk. Just some suggestions.

Why would you want to remove your badges in the first place?
