Default How to remove pinstripe from a car

Some jerk backed into my civic and dented up the fender. The only replacements available were either the wrong color or had a pinstripe. I took the one with the pinstripe but I need to remove it because it looks ridiculous since the rest of the car isnt striped.

I have no idea how to remove it without damaging the paint. Can anyone tell me how or recommend a place to bring it to?

Thanks

Best way to remove it without damaging the paint is using the 3M Pinstripe Removing wheel.

Buy one at your local car detailing supply store.
