Default De-badging new Accord

I want to remove all the badging from the trunk of my '09. Are there any holes in the trunk behind the badges or are they 100% stick-on?

the honda H usually has holes, but everything ought to come right off with a blowdryer and dental floss.
i'm not sure if this is true for the 09's though, as i've never worked on one

The H has two holes i believe,if you want to remove it...you will need to fill the holes,bondo,sand and repaint the area.

Well, I removed the "ACCORD" and "V6" badges today. The "H" doesn't look bad at all, and it kinda ties in with the "H" in the grille. I'll leave it in place until I get a definite answer. At 120 miles on the odometer, it's not time to do any body work. Thank you for your replies.

The H badges have had 2 studs on them for the longest time.... most people don't take them off, but will paint them the same color as the body or black.

I'd use a citrus oil based glue remover to get the remnants of tape off of the paint, something like Goo Gone would do that trick, but I'd stay away from petrol-based Goof Off and the like.

Good idea! The car is black so that would look wicked. I didn't know that about the two removers. Thanks for your help!
