not sure what wrx you have if you want to get rid of the plastic wrx badge that is stuck on, I used a hair dryer and some fishing line, took about 30 mins to do fishinged the job with some maguires paint cleaner

if you have a import with the sticker, a hair dryer will be fine

did it on my 02 wrx

easy to do with a hairdryer.. if you don't use the fishing line you will end up snapping the letters

have a look on the bug eye spoiler thread to see my effort

I used very hot water to soften the glue, then some fishing line.

I just took off the "WRX Impreza" bit, as I photoshopped out the 'Subaru' and thought it looked too plain.
