If it's like mine, it has a layer of what looks like 3M mounting tape to seal it tight to the trunk and deter thieves. I managed to get the edge of a credit card under the roundel at the bottom, and work it around until I could get a trim pry tool under it. Be vary careful-it's easy to scratch the paint. I have also heard of people using a piece of that thin plastic strapping they use on boxes to get under the badge and then use it as a puller to break the seal. Take your time. A bit of heat may help soften the adhesive, too. If I were to do it again, I'd put vinyl tape around the perimeter of the badge to protect the paint.
