Removing pinstripe and emblems

Can anyone tell me the best way to remove my pinstripe and emblems. I heard a hairdryer works.

use a clay bar to remove the strips and the detailer stuff....it'll give your car a nice shine afterwards as well. The emblem pull very slowly until u removed most of it gunk...than use the goo gone stuff...makes the car smell like orange than use the clay bar

yeah that would work, unless it is painted on. on my old TL, it was painted on, so i had to leave it on, otherwise ^^^ is right, just pull it, carefully. with the emblems, an easy way to get it off is leave it out in the baking sun for a few hours, then the adhesive should have softened up so you could pull it out easily. taking out the gunky adhesive is the hard part. here...i did a diy on it

should be in the 2nd page.

so yeah
