I've had some stickers on my car for almost 3 years now and have recently decided to remove them. Civic coupe VTi-R owners will know that there are 'DOHC_VTEC' stickers on the side of the car - I want to remove them along with 2 other stickers I stuck myself.

Seeing that these stickers have been on the car for almost 3 years, I was thinking that peeling them off normally might take off the paint underneath with it. True?

Anyone have any recommendations on how to remove old stickers?

Thanks

use a hair dryer to melt the glue a bit, and they should peel off no worries. :P

u shouldn't peel the paint off... but it might be slightly less faded underneath the sticker :P

you would be a ricer to whack a cxi sticker on a VTiR.
too many differences to notice that its not a CXi LOL
i.e. black mirrors, no sunroof + all the interior. :)

but it would be funny tho and it has been done :shock:

so you reckon some guy in a Pulsar Q will notice the differences? :lol:
or how about a lancer VR-X? 8)
