I've not done this. But I'm sure if you wait long enough someone will chime in that they have done it useing floss or fishing line. Use it like a saw through the glue behind the badge. Then just rub off the remaining glue with your fingers and then just was it like normal with light rubbing to make sure all the glue is off, and be sure to wax that area well... as it's probably never been waxed.

Me and my best bud took the emblems of his '98 civic ex, normally and this pertains to you, I would use hot water and soak the sticker a lot. We used a butter knife and were VERY careful to not scratch the paint. For his emblems: we used a hair dryer to heat and loosen the glue then proceeded with the knife to pry off the emblem. It all comes down to loosening the glue then you just have to be careful no matter what you use.:thumbup:

What you will need:
1. Blow Dryer
2. Goo-Gone (you can get this at any hardware store or even a local walgreens or k-mart)
Okay, here's what I did to remove my vtec, SH, and P-R-E-L-U-D-E stickers:
1. Heat the sticker with a blow dryer to get it hot.
2. Peel very carefully to prevent any sticky residue to be left behind.
3. Use your Goo-Gone to remove any sticky residue that is left over and wipe!
4. Start process over again for other stickers.

Or just use dental floss... skip the heating process and then wipe the surface clean. It's much easier. I did one this weekend to see how it was.
Once you get under the emblem, use a razor to help if needed. Just pull and saw it back and forth. It's super easy. Then just deal with the left over glue. We didn't really have a lot of glue.. the floss got really really close to the paint but did no damage. :thumbup:

If they are little bit tough to peel, then use a blowdryer first, then peel them off.
