How does one remove the metallic Chevy emblem off of a van to prime/paint?

Does it just pry off? How so it won't bend? How do you replace it?How does one remove the metallic Chevy emblem off of a van to prime/paint?
i don't know sepcifically, but most of the time, they have two things sticking off of them that have a circular washer looking thing on the back that locks in sort of like a rivet, but... not really.. you have to remove those.. you can probably pry it off, but you'll lose whatever it's connected to..





other times they have pinch type studs in them which go into a hole and spread out. if that's the type this is, then you will need to depress it so it will come out. you're likely to break the tabs off and need to replace it.





i'm glad to see you're doing things the RIGHT way, but, there's always the ghetto way..... tape it up, sand really well around the emblem, then prime it....
