goo gone, goof off or acyrsol will remove it fine but you'll need to rewax the areas afterwards.

I soaked mine with goo gone, then scraped it off with a credit card.

Heating it helps out quite a bit too, I practiced on the old Volvo and had a bit of a tough time, but used a heat gun on the Acura and it was a lot easier. Some goof-off and detailing clay helped it out too.

i think goo gone damages the paint... i have a bottle in the garage but i just got home from work and im too lazy to go get it and read the label.. i've done it with an adhesive remover spray before and it worked well... you can find it at any local auto parts... also some people use bug and tar remover im not sure how that works... keep us posted and take pics if you can..

3m general adhesive remover-U can get some at PepBoys, or at your local auto paint store, here in atlanta, we have a shop called Auto Color, that carries this stuff, or you can order it from Griots Garage. This stuff will remove anything, be sure to apply wax afrter use.

I just heated the letters up with a blow/hair dryer and the tape came off with the letters. Oh and WD-40 is better than Goo Gone and Goof Off.
