(type r) on the bottom right under the keyhole.
Car is a v5type r !

Simple question

Glad you have taken them off. Were they the ones you buy in motorshops?

No offense dude, but they reminded me of the people that put their names on their cars :lol1:

radboy69 - yeah i toyed with the idea of loosing the spoiler for a while and decided its gonna go... what wheels are them you have on yours ..? am looking at changing mine at the minute... probably after the re-map.....

How did you manage to get the letters of mate without leaving some stickness behind, what did you use?

I always use a heat gun/hair dryer with a credit card wrapped in cloth to peel off the adhesive. From there I then polish up the area to get rid of any tiny scratches and adhesive residue left.

wraggy78 26 July 2009 06:58 PM

They had only been on less than a day. i put them on just before i put this post up..
Anyway i pulled them off then used GRAFTER by a company called dymon. it removes.
adhesive-gasket residue-chewing gum-stickers-paint and graffiti..
obviously you dont just spray it on the car..
I sprayed a bit onto a cloth then circular motion rub over the adhesive. then hot soapy water straight away..
All off no marks or damage ....
