Heat it up a little with an hair dryer, then with a little knife carefully take it off.
Wash the glue resides off with some white petrol.
A bit of t-cut and polish and if you're lucky no paint work needed.

Or just put your fitted car cover on and you'll find your badge on the floor..................

White petrol??.... Is that like red diesel but for very fast tractors?

No need for glue and mess, you can buy a special double sided adhesive foam tape from motor factors that's specifically for the job and you just cut it to size.

Its for formula 1 tractors

Its kerosene basically, works a treatat removing the glue/foam residues and makes less damage than petrol.
