i think you could do this yourself. just start at one end and pull the stripe off. after that just clay and wax the area

I got a pinstripe on my car and I think it looks tight on the vehicle, but to each his own.... to take it off is as easy as tpatel said... those that have done it have had no problems... do a search for it....

I use Goo Gone. It removes almost anything without damaging the clearcoat. Just remember to clay and polish the area afterwards.
