3M adhesive remover also works amazing, a must for all garages.

After taking the emblems off the fenders and putting them up to the trunk to check...... they don't belong on the trunk. Too crowded, so I'll affix them to my laptop, like everything else.

i know it's a lil off topic but Goon Gone worked very well when my grandmother bought a 01 honda accord and it had that clear bra stuck to it. it had to have been pretty old cause it was chipped from rocks and dirt was building under it. anywho i first pulled the bra off. what a bitch. it didn't want to come off at all. after i got it off it had left over glue stuck to it. i pulled out the goo gone and the glue came right off. of course with a lil nail scratching. as for the paint being damaged. nope it's been a year and the bumper still looks brand new. recently waxed it and now looks twice as better.

Hair dryer, heat it up and just peel away. Works like a champ without spending a penny, the wife hates it when I leave the hair dryer in the garage .

I did mine with WD40. saturate-soak-rub off with a semi rigid plastic edge (credit card worked well). Repeat 3-4 times, then wash and wax it a few times.

The trick is letting the liquid do the work, not your man power.
