Let's say I order a 2.3T emblem to put on the fender of my ecoboost. I stick it on and a month later decide I really don't like it, how easy is it to remove without damaging the car?

Super easy. A little heat and fishing line. No damage to the paint at all

Heat gun works much quicker than hair dryer. Tape around the 5.0 so you don't scratch anything especially when you work the last of the glue off. After removing the emblem (with fishing line or floss) there will be considerable glue remaining. I used silicone spray on that with more heat to remove the remnants. it takes a while but the black badging looks much better on my ride.

I wouldn't say easy, but it's not hard.

It's just a pain in the ass because that adhesive sticks very well. Whatever you do, try to peel the remaining tape off in one piece (after you actually removed the emblem) and only use googone/ whatever other adhesive remover for the remaining little bits and residue.
