Flat hood badge
Does anyone know how to take it off? I looked underneath and it seems to be two spring loaded arms. The opening is to small for my fingers to get in, I was thinking of using a pair of needle nose pliers but thought I would ask here first maybe someone knows a better way.

It's very easy. I took mine off when I got the clear bra installed. You just pinch those triggers (arms) and it pops right out. Keep a hold of it so it doesn't slide across the hood. To return it, you just pop it back in.

Thanks Derspeed. Thats what I figured I plan on using locking needle nose to pinch the triggers then release once I have it pressed forward.

If anyone knows of or has seen or has installed a black and white flat hood badge, please PM me. I'll buy it immediately, pretty much at any price. I'm willing to pay someone to make a custom hood badge if necessary.
I've been looking for one since before I bought the car, and no luck so far. A coupla pokes at different shops for custom badge didn't really work out either.
I am not interested in a part B&W (any blue or silver still showing) badge. The design, lettering, and all that is fine--just want 'em in B&W.
Anyone?
