stickers are easy to remove, BUT I think that it looks awesome as it is, I normally dont like the rally look but for some reason I think this bug pulls it off!!!

I think the technique is to use a hair drier to soften the plastic/glue as you peel it off and then use bug/tar remover to get remains of glue off. Never tried it myself. If stickers have been on for a long time the paint underneath may be a slightly different shade.

The stickers look far nicer than those two fugly carbuncles on the poor bug-eye...

IMHO

dunno, they fade pretty quick anyway, think its coz they yellow, mine were on a 52plate, an wasnt any paint fading, i peeled them all off, all that lot like that 1 has, tar an glue removed any glue left, and then gave it a polish, looked mint after
