My car doesn't have those badges currently applied, but I just ordered
some and was curious as to the exact location on the fender. Where do
you apply them? Measurements?

If it's the same old Contact cement used for applying laminates, you can
soften it using PPG's Acryli-Clean. It will take a while to work the
solvent
under the badges, but patience will pay off.
ANd Next time use the correct method of attaching the badges. Use
double stick trim tape that is available at most body shop supply
stores.
