I’ve seen a lot of discussion on the rear “Kia” badge remove/replacement, but nothing on “stinger” badge removal on the rear/left side of the 2019’s.

Is the existing the rear/left “stinger” badge attached with easily removable adhesive?

If I replace the rear “Kia” badge with the new “stinger” badge, then it will have two stinger badges which would look redundant.

Mine came off, but not super easy. I didn't want to break the Stinger script, so I took my time. Even with Goo-Gone, it took a bit of elbow grease to get all the residual glue off. I also used a hair dryer to soften up the glue that was left behind. That seemed to help. I then used a little dab of cut polish and buffed the area up; you would never know there was an emblem there before!
