How did you get it off? I heated it up with a hair dryer and used a plastic putty knife (brand new one) and did it easily so I wouldn't scratch anything even though it is made of plastic then got under the edges and peeled them off one by one! After that I used goo gone and wiped the remaining residue off and then rewaxed the spot it was at! | |

Thanks! That seems like a better solution than the power sander method I was contemplating. | |

| I actually found using bug and tar remover spray works awesome in getting that dealer decal off. I saturated the sticker and used a plastic spatula from Menards and it came off with little effort. I tried heating it up with a blow dryer first and it was a long process so I drove to the nearest auto parts store and got the turtle wax bug and tar remover and was done with the removal in about 5 minutes tops. | |

| I ended up using a blow dryer and plastic putty knife followed by lighter fluid (works great on glue residue), Windex, water, and finally car wax.
Came out nicely. | |

You can hardly make out the decal on my profile page, but it's the best "before" picture I have: http://www.chicagolandareamodernmopars.com/profile.forum?mode=viewprofile&u=104 | |
