Before you can start, exit the cabin of your BMW 3 Series and head to the front of the vehicle. Begin by inserting a piece of paper into the gap between the front emblem and the hood to protect the hood from scratches.

Next, insert the tip of a flathead screwdriver into the same gap, above the piece of paper. At this point, pry gently.

This will disengage the emblem from its housing. Once you complete this step, you can remove the emblem completely, finishing the disassembly.
