I just brought some new bages for my 328xi, and wondering how to remove the old front, back and steering wheel bages without scatching the car and the steering wheel...is there any tricks?

Front, insert a few credit cards until you can pry out with fingers, rear use dental floss. do not remove steering one, usually is an overlay.

^Good advice.
For the rear number use dental floss or fishingline.
Make sure the car has been in the sun for a while or use a heat gun or blowdryer to warm it up a little.
Makes it much easier

While fishing line is stronger, WAXED dental floss is the preferred method for de-badging (less chance of marring the clear coat). If it isn't stinking hot outside, use a hair-blower to heat up the badges for 90 seconds before using the dental floss.
