Default Taking off front bumper emblem

Hey guys so I'm getting a different front bumper knight emblem for the monte within the next day or so but the problem is I have no idea how to take the existing one off. I know how to take regular badges off but yeah no freakin idea about the front so any help would be appreciated thanks!

if memory serves me right there is 2 nuts holding it on, that i believe are very hard to get too, i cut em off mine when i took it off & just used the sticky backing to hold the new one on

if u do go with just cuttin it off than u wanna take some welding wire or strong fishing line & heat it up a bit & run the wire behind it & it should cut threw

its not two nuts, when you get it you will see theres two posts on the back, just use fishing line on all sides until you hit the posts and then pull it off. it's not too bad, youll see what im talking about when you get the emblem

Haven't we explained this to you already? :P

Use the fishing line method again, but when you get towards the middle of it, that method will stop working. Now you take a paper towel (for scratch safety) and wrap it around a flat-head, and pry under from where you just used the fishing line and POP out the badge.

My 03 had the nuts, but I'm not sure about the 05 - all that was taken care of at the body shop after my accident.
