Removing Rubbery Badges

From : Annonymous

Q: i was starting to remove the badges on the side of my 97 dakotaso i could re-paint them i thought that these badges would be solid. but when i heated them up to remove them they are fexible and almost like rubber. i dont know if these can be removed like the solid badges or if they wont hold shape when they are removed. anyone had previous experience with doing this .
