Both tank and side panel badges can be removed by applying heat to soften the adhesive then gently prising them off. I used fingernails then penknife, but I've heard others using dental floss.

Before I took the badges off, I made this mold from paper mache to use as a template when re fixing them. Did it over 2 days to let first 3 layers set , then did about 4 more layers.

Next morning, it just lifted off, (don't forget to use a release agent first, I used WD40, 1st layer of paper sticks to that). The adhesive was wallpaper paste.
