How do you take the emblem off?

first off, what emblem do you mean, front or back? Removing the rear emblem will leave two holes. You'll have to have a body shop fill and re-paint.
Removing the front emblem also leaves two holes, not to mention the emblem shaped area in the grill that would look stupid without the emblem.

Havent u learned anything from this Import world we live in? Its all about modifying. Thats why we shave door handles, install conversion kits, paint cars over, etc. Its so that your car doesnt look like the factory model that some dickhead just bought. Does it make any sense now?(loser)Dragon_Reborn said:why would u wanan remove the mazda emblem anyway? I would remove protege and maybe the word mazda but not the emblem it'self.

yeah but taking off the front emblem and just leaving it like that, or even filling in those 2 holes, looks really ******* stupid. it looks like someone came and stole your emblem. trust me i know, i ve been driving around for 3 weeks now without one because i am working on a project, but even I think it looks like stupid s***. i looks liek im trying to be some kind of cool ricer man who takes off the emblem so that they consider the car modified.
the emblems rock, why wouldnt you want peopole to know you drive a mazda / protege.

I have a MP3 and if I take off the front emblem which is on the grill, there will be two holes on it???
Coz I see people take off their Honda or Acura front emblem, it looks good!
you still see the mazda symbol so whats the point?
let me illustrate:
cant wait till i finish this project so i can put an emblem back on (original or custom!)

I have to take my rear emblem off because there's rust accumulating behind it, or rather around the middle of it (a common problem I see for MP5s). But I'll definitely put it back together.
To fill the holes, use the kit that you'd usually use to repair dents on bumpers and then repaint. Not hard, and very cheap.

Not true. To fill the holes properly and not have problems in the future you need to weld them closed...grind down your weld, then use MINIMAL amount of bondo, primer, paint.
if you just use bondo to fill holes on a car, a year or two down the road it will crack and then youll have to do it all again.
