ok check it, im all bout sleeper look, so im thinkin bout removin all the the stickers on my car, the ones like awd 16valve dohc turbo. then i was thinkin on removin them all, how hard would it be to take every single sticker off, is there anything i should watch out for or be really careful bout, thanks

I did it to mine, didnt want to bost the turbo to un-suspecting victims... Since your car is only two years olde then mine, it shouldnt be too much harder. Get your hands on a heat gun, and just go back and forth over each sticker, untill you can peel it off. They wont come off as whole stickers, but peices. Go slowly to make sure you dont damage the paint. And becarefull, those f*ckers get hot! The only thing after that, is your going to notice where the stickers were, the paint it going to look brand new, unlike the rest of the car which is faded slightly. The only way to remedy this, short of painting, is to compound and polish the hell out of it. Even on mine, you can see where the stickers were at certain angles. But the normal onlooker wont notice. Its pretty simple actually. Just go slowly, and dont be in a rush to get it de-badged. Here's a pic of mine. IMO its looks awesome.

i just used a credit card and slowly rocked it back and forth under the writing. it peeled off and left no marks. took 2 minutes
 
I would avoid razor blades. We used a blade on a friends car and now there is a small slice in the paint. That of course was our fault, but we were being careful. You can buy bumper sticker remover at autozone, which is an anti-adhesive.
 
HAHA, thats a great idea Mr. Samples. Wait, you can mess with them more if you put DL on instead. :D And when I took my pinstipes off, I quickly learned that a heat gun would help with older stickers.
