Yes and No.
You CAN use floss and a dryer to get the badge to come off (the adhesive is only at the very top and bottom of the emblem.
BUT, there's two pegs in the H emblem, so if you take it off, you're going to want to put something back over it anyway to cover those two holes.

^ Debadged mine today, outline was still there even after I used Goo gone.

I got some rubbing alcohol and cleaned the area a bit. After that, I polished with Meguiar's #7, then waxed with NXT 2.0.

Now it looks clean and 100% times better!

Thanks man, I was originally going to do this, but you confirmed that it isn't attached to the car other than the adhesive.

I can't stand the fake "plastic" chrome. I am thinking of powdercoating my wheels, and I think im going to paint the front and fear "H" symbols the same color.

Very easy mod....I just used a blowdryer to heat it up as stated and used a towel to grab the Civic badge and it peeled right off with almost no blue left behind. I cleaned it up w/ Automotive Goo gone and washed and waxed it afterwards.

Looks like it was never there.

to take the adhesive off, just grab a nail polish remover/ paint thinner, and use some microfiber towels and slowly remove it. then i would suggest putting a nice layer of wax over it, since you just took a layer off from the coating.

If I remove the Civic badge, is it possible for me to lose my warranty on the car?

No man it would not void your warranty of the car but void the warranty for that emblem so your all good.
