pinstripe
Heres the deal. You can take a heat gun or a hair dryer and take it off. Or you can just pick at it with your fingernails. On my Accord thats what I did, just picked it off with my fingers worked quite well. Took me a couple hours but still. On my TL I thought about it, but like it on there so I haven't taken it off yet.

Yeah on TLs the pinstripe is under the clear coat. I had mine sanded off. Dont try to pull it off or pick at it. Take it to a body shop. I'm not sure how much it costs because I had my bumper painted and they took the stripe off for free.

When I took mine off on my accord, a few months later I had a 2K paintjob put on so it went right over it, never knew I had it. I guess TL's are different.

25flamingTL, try it Acurasnakes way and see what happens. I dont think you'll damage anything with Goo Gone.
