de-ricing project

[Masakari]

today starts de-ricing phase one of my car...which covers all the stickers...
thank god there is only a few of them, but unfortunately they are on teh paint, what should i use to get them off... one of them is a web page address sprawled out across the back about the same length as the word talon on the trunk lid...i already have some cleaner wax to get all the paste shit off, but what should i use to remove the sticker?

auto zone has sticker remover , buy it and follow the directions works great

wd40 could work as well.my eclipse had a goofball sticker of some little guy with the caption"feelin lucky"on my rear bumper.wd40 took it right off.

I've heard of WD-40 too.. just make sure you clean the bumper well after you use it.
Use a heat gun first just to loosen the stickers up and get surgical with a razor blade or even thin fishing line. Then Goo Gone or the sticker remover to get the rest of the gunk off. Just wondering, what else are you doing for your 'de-ricing' phase?

sticker removal..windshield banner is getting taken off...thats about all the rice

other mods i am doing is putting an oem hood back on ( carbon fiber isnt my thing) and i am swapping out the apexi-n1 muffler for a monza pacesetter exhaust system ( dont much care for the oversized can exhaust look and its a little to loud for my taste)

the interior needs a little work...relocating turbo timer and SAFC...installing a aluminum dash kit..havent decided if i want to paint the interior black or try to find a complete new interior trim package in black..catzkins seat covers

installing black projector headlights and AVS painting the rear lights

the front clip needs reworked big time, looks liek the guy used a pocket knife to install the intercooler...and then a repaint

small dings need touch up paint and buffed...left side door trim needs repainted

wiper arms need repainted

thats about all i know for sure at this time...

Sticker removal completed, thanks for the info....they actually pealed off easily after i got them started with my finger nail and then i buffed the goop off with mcguiers cleaner wax

well if you are getting rid of the hood and exhaust you can send it to me if you would like? tell me how much

check out www.machv.com

they've got some great OEM stuff for our cars, like the windshield wiper arms. they sell them new, unless you'd like to save money painting them like you said.

Check out the other stuff they got. i love that website...

just a suggestion!
