CF roundel replacement--help... its not fitting right!

How do I take off the old roundels on the car? I dont want to damage things and I have tried searching here.

I assume its easy but dont want to start sticking a screw driver under the badge and hurting something!

I'll post pix after!

Ok I have done the front. It was a simple pop in. The rear is posing a problem. The grommets are too big for the roundel bolts so it doesnt fit at all.

Should I be gluing it or how do I get new grommets? This is starting to worry me since the OEMs fit so well with that seal from factory. Are these CF ebay roundels going to stay or collect tons of dirt under them since they are not sealed?

yeah, the replacement roundels presently being sold in the market right now does not fit the E92 as good as the E90. This issue has been discussed before, always good to search E90post before buying any mods , it'll save you a lot of griefs down the road
