so, i've got the two little pinstripes things on the side of my car and i need to get rid of em. i think i read something not long ago about a couple people that have done that. i'm just wondering how to get em off safely without damaging the paint underneath.
thanks |

I've always heard that a blowdryer and hot rag would work just fine. There is some stuff though that gets glue and things like that off paint but doesn't hurt the paint at all. I don't remember the name though....I'll look at home and tell you tomorrow. But I think I just got it at the local auto store. It shouldn't be to hard to find!
Shaved emblems are definately better!!!
