This is not for the faint of heart......
That mini sledge is one of the best tools I have ever purchased. It has helped me numerous times for years, believe me when I tell you.




I think I have some of both, but since retirement a few weeks ago, its tough to schedule finishing the job........lol
I am concerned about getting anything on the paint, but I imagine I will be ok, hope to get done by the weekend, that's if my "busy" retirement schedule allows........lol

Those are both paint safe I used em to replace my pops CE emblems back in the day before he bought the CTS-V. GC
