I did the same thing with my emblems (thumb) Im also going to have to agree with kudakev about the mazdaspeed sitcker, but to each his own. if you like it thats all that matters.

How did you get the side mouldings off - fishing line, dental floss? How bad was teh cleanup of the glue?

I used fishing line for about 5 inches and then slowly pulled them off. The only glue I had to clean up was the 5 inches where I used the fishing line and I used my thumb to do that. Then washed the car and done.

how did u stick the emblems back on?

 

[sromero2]

The front one snaps in and I used 3M plastic and emblem adhesive. The clear kind. I picked up from Napa about 8 bucks a tube. It can be used on all sorts of stuff.

^Werd. Shaved, though, that thing looks as smooth as a baby's bottom.

how do you remove the emblems? do they have screws...

The front one has four screws and snaps. The rear one use fishing line. There are two pins on the sides at the tips of the wings. Then use 3M liquid adhesive to put it back on. Make sure you get the clear kind.
