Replacing H emblem on Civic

[nugget1]

Just got some OEM gold emblems for my civic and the instructions say to remove the front bumper, is there anyway to do it without removing the bumper?
I've searched and know how to get the backs ones off but couldn't find anything on the front one. TIA

hey were did u get gold honda badges i want some

I picked them up off Ebay, a private seller, still in box unused for $35, front and rear H and civic, they are for a four door so I might have to lose the silver coupe badge that goes under the civic badge.
Looks like I'll just have to take the bumper off, I find it tricky to take those clips off without breaking them, practise makes perfect so they say.

The clips were easy, nothing like the underbody ones I had trouble with when installing my CAI, took 10 minutes to get it off, too easy. Had trouble with the self tappers in the wheel arch but used a squat phillips and no probs.
Eucalyptus oil seemed to work better than turps in removing the residue adhesive though plenty of elbow grease was required. I used a paint cleaner to give it the final clean.
