Next week I'm going to be putting JDM fenders on my car - they won't have the pinstripes the rest of my car has, so I'd like to take the opportunity to completely remove the existing pinstripes and re-stripe in a different color. However, I don't wanna scratch my paint scraping off the old stripes, so is there any way to get them off without harming my clear? They're the stick on type, it seems.
Also, same goes for the celica emblem on the US fender - I'd like to put it on the JDM fenders underneath the sidemarker - is it just 3M tape or is it held in by screws? Any advice would be appreciated, thanks in advance. Edit: Here are my stripes: ![]() and here's my emblem:

x2 on that.
I believe the emblem is held on by two screws or sumthing. you will have to take it off when you take off the fender. -------------------- ![]() *1997 Celica ST - 3SGE Greytop BEAMS *1977 Celica RA29 - Classic Cruiser *2005 Matrix AWD - dedded but still hanging around like a ghost 2019 Rav4 XLE Premium - Sports mode is fun. |
