Default Keeping HD Emblem on with paint flames?

I like the HD chrome emblem on the tank. I am doing my paint job Monday morning. Did anyone keep theirs? Hope they can work their way around it.

I am going to get the same flmeas over Black cherry pearl paint, going to get a cross with Jesus in the middle of the faring in Ivory white. Will go with the painted HD tank label of the same color.

Why go around it?
It should come right off with some heat from a hair drier.
Then you can stick it back on when the job is done.

If its a decal thats a different story but the emblems are just stuck on with some double sided tape.

Just put new paint on mine...took emblems off and they won't be going back on...I think it gives the bike a nice "clean" look
