I cannot view the area behind the fascia so I cannot tell, but there is full tape around the rear of each emblem so I am thinking there are probably no holes.

Just watch those microfiber towels around the emblem as they seem to like the threads.

Aren't the front and rear emblems the same size? I would love to replace both Nissan badges on my ride with these...

The 09 could be entirely different from the 350Z. I'd start with a little below medium, and judge from there. You don't want to heat damage your paint.
You could pm SoCal 370Z, and see if he removed his.

I used dental floss to remove the "370 Z" emblem by seesawing the floss through the emblem at the angle with least glue surface. The dental floss has wax which makes it easy to cut across the emblem’s glue and preventing it from scratching the paint. I also wet the floss with Goo Gone to make it even easier to slice it through the glue. Once the emblem is removed, I removed the bottom glue layer by slowly rolling off the glue with my finger or cotton towel from one end to the other end. Then I used Goo Gone to clean up whatever left over. This took me only 15 minutes. I have not tried to remove the “Nissan” emblem because it may have holes and waiting for the Z logo to replace it with. I hope this helps.

Its really funny... all it takes is one little emblem removal and the rear end is magically transformed to a much cleaner, smoother rear end. I did it as well (in the sun of the carolinas) and all you need is a fine string to saw the emblem off the glue. Then its simply using any acidic fluid to remove the glue left behind.

Much better without it.
