You should be able to get them off intact but even if you break one or both pegs off, you can still use them again by applying 3M body trim tape. Actually, that is a better way to install those badges anyway. They seal better and protect the holes from rust because the pegs tend to rattle around in the holes and chip the paint off exposing the edges to the elements.

They look like a part cast out of cheap metal and have two pegs that go through the body work and are secured is some way.From the back these pegs look like blind rivets that haven't been compressed.
