          I cut the metal the decal was on and removed the sticker and the paint with a sos pad or some sand paper. Then I went to a shop and got it re-welded and buffed out the excess weld marks and took my fender out and and re-painted it.

            I really don't know what to say about that...except that sure as hell was doing things the hard way.

              use your fingernail or thumbnail to peel up one corner and pull it off. Use a bug/tar remover to remove the excess glue. should take no mroe tehn 10 minutes of your time.

                ^^that worked for me, and would be the sensible thing to to. If its tought to get a corner lifted, just put some heat on it. As a matter of fact, if you use heat to remove them, you shouldnt even need to remove the adhesive.

                    damn... and was thinking... what a ****ing expensive and useless mod. I gave up on mine last winter...I was doing it at the same time as the side moldings.... I just got irratated and was cold... got a corner off.... maybe I will try again today.
