The only reason I said it is because he's already started if your gunna leave it stock then leave it, Stickers don't mean it's "real" normally if you haven't got the real thing you stick decals on to make it look like one so quite the opposite, you know yourself that its an R and the people in the know would know by looking?
As said he started by taking the WRX of the boot I'm not telling him to do anything personal preference and all that!!

Yeah the WRX badge colours don't really do it for me either would've looked better in white like the rest.

Right before you even use a rotary polisher (mop) get rid of the sticky backing as you will create an edge that you'll see and feel you want to clean the surface before taking a layer of lacquer off!
Anything solvent based that'll evaporate will take off the muck, panel wipe from a motor factors is the best if your gunna buy theres plenty of stuff you can get off the shelf not as good as the trade stuff petrol was said if you didn't have time to go buy anything and it works really well.

If you don't have any luck pop down I've got all the stuff here.......

Russ!

^^ Man knows his stuff!

(You can tell it's true when he reckons his wagon is several different shades of white and is always filthy... It's shinier and cleaner than a surgeon with OCD keeps his kitchen!)
