I used a heat gun and a bit of string/dental floss to run behind the badges to cut the glue after you heat it. Then cleanup is a bit of metho to get the old glue off.

I finally just took the stupid Ireland's number plate frames off. That was annoying, they sure keep them on tight.

I get my license back on Wednesday, so tomorrow I'm gonna wash it all over, take the wheels off and clean them, including inside the rims too. Vacuum all inside if needed then wait patiently for Wednesday. Hahaha.

Either way you will need to reapply the paint protection, as where you remove the glue from will need to be coated :)
