Replace BRP emblems on nose and rear

[leepsnco]

I bought the spyder emblems for the front and rear for my Spyder RT. No instructions came with it. What is the best way to replace the BRP emblems with the new spyder emblems. Remove the BRP emblems or put the new over the old. If remove the old what is the best way to get the BRP emblems off without scratching the crome around the emblems?

I also replaced the BRP emblems with Spyders, gently use a hair dryer or heat gun to warm the BRP emblems and they will come off without too much trouble, i used a pair of needle nose pliers and gently grabbed one side while keeping the heat on it as i peeled it away then i cleaned up any small pieces that did not come off initially, do not put the new emblem over the old one. make sure the new emblem is at least inside room temperature before putting it on your bike. it is not too difficult and looks real good.

:agree: Make sure you get all the old glue off.

 

[Chupaca]

Have to agree..!!

:agree: with both..clean old glue off and wipe surface with alcohol before applying the new ones. My front one came off by itself..you'll be fine pic's when your done...!! :thumbup:

Heat it up then use dental floss to pry them off

Unable to upload a pic right now, but I got mine from custom dynamics.

Chainsaw! Done right it gets all the glue off too

 

[SDM]

Chainsaw works really well for trimming fingernails also!!!:roflblack:

 

[joet82]

And I have heard it exfoliates the skin really well....

On a serious note, I remembered Lamonster sells a set as well.

Electric or gas

Electric or gas chainsaw? I have both!

Guess I should have done a little more research and checked out Lamont's emblems. I am not happy with the ones from Custom Dynamics. They're paper thin and not the same size as the BRP emblems that came off, they're noticeably smaller. I think they're way over priced for what you get. There's a little recess/void behind the BRP emblems, especially in the front. These emblems are so thin that they will cave in the first time pressure is put on them. And the front already started to when I applied it.

Back to methology for a moment...

I was hoping that I didn't miss the chance to let this little feller show off a bit...

The thin decals are made to go on top of the BRP domed ones.
