"Passion" badge removal question

Has anyone yet removed the "Passon" badges on the outside rearview mirror supports? How did it work out?

These look like they're affixed by adhesive only and would be as simple to remove as most body badges with fishing line and Goof-off.

The come right off and might need a little adhesive remover to get the extra glue off. the panel behind is same as the rest, all one texture. I took some off to put xclusive emblems on

Thank you! (Love the car, dislike the 'Passion' name.)

Yeah I totally don't get why there is a passion badge but no fortwo badge.

Makes people think the model is passion...

Mine came right off. Car was cool and everything. There wasn't a trace of residue either, didn't need any cleaners. They're now stuck to a pillar in our garage in case someone wants them

Cool, is there an English version of that site at all? Or a different English site that does custom Smart stickers like that?

i just worked with them via email and paypal to make the order. they're working on an english version of the site but said not to expect it until the fall.

they were fine to work with via email however, and they sent a proof of the artwork for me to approve before going to press on it.

with shipping to the USA, approx cost for two mirror triangle badges was $20 US.
the person i worked with was Daniel - and he's at shop@smartsticker.de

I am astonished that anybody would object to the "Passion" emblem. I guess it takes all kinds.
