what is a good adhesive to use to put them back. I dont want them falling out lol. I seem some stuff at autozone but not sure they do the job.

The front emblem will just back in with retaining bolts. The rear you'll just clean the old adhesive off real good and then use 3m adhesive tape on the new emblem to stick it back on. I got mine at auto zone. There are a couple different grades of adhesive tape, though. Be sure you get the tape with the red back on it. It'll be slightly more expensive but it's MUCH stronger so spend the extra dollar or two :)

Any tricks to removing the rear bow tie

I actually used a hair dryer and cut an old temporary license plate. (you know the ones with the dealers name on it). I used a hair dryer and worked a piece from one side till it hits the pin thats behind the bow tie, then I left it in place and worked another piece from the other side and top and bottom. The piece that you leave in place acts like a guard so that when you pull one side up it doesn;t dig into your paint. Then just use some adhesive remover to take off the rest of the tape.

You can see in the picture below, my white GMC logo to match the truck. I also did this to the denali logo... I used white vinyl. VERY cheap, VERY easy, and Durable, and can be removed easily if you want to... just lay a sheet of vinyl over the entire word, then carefully cut around the letters, leaving a little extra material to "tuck" under or around the edges...

Where did you get this vinyl? Pics of the word 'Denali' wrapped in white vinyl?
