It worked pretty well just make sure you get behind the black plastic of the emblem not just the outer metal part this will bend it all to hell. It helps if you do it on a warm day also

I got a question thats not related, hopefully you guys can answer. Does the part below my side emblem come stock or was it added? If it was added should it just be double sided tape or would it have clips? I know the emblem itself has clips but i doubt if something was added it would, just making sure bc the vents need to go!!!

I looks like it was added. They do come similar to that on the 250's and 350's
