Removing Jimmy Emblem.
Any tricks to removing the emblems without having to unbolt outer/inner fenders? Thanks

Re: Removing Jimmy Emblem.
I'll jump in here since you haven't received any responses yet. Having just put my front clip back together, I really can't see any way you could do that without at least removing the inner fender. Even then it would take a lot of flexibility and patience.

Re: Removing Jimmy Emblem.
Appreciate the feedback.
Do you happen to know if the reproduced Jimmy emblems are plastic or metal? |

Re: Removing Jimmy Emblem.
I’ve done it with the inner fender in. Not easy but doable.

Re: Removing Jimmy Emblem.
I don’t think I did. You have to use a small wrench and basically lay across the fender. If I did it again the inner fenders would come out. It’s a pain.

Re: Removing Jimmy Emblem.
I have done it from underneath the rear edge of the fender. You will need patience, and a longer 3/8ths ratchet wrench, and long arms.

 If I can confirm that the reproduced ones are metal, I'll probably just cut the studs on mine. They need to be repainted anyway.
