Can anyone recommend a good way to remove the annoying sticker at the rear end, the one that says Impreza 2000 AWD. Don't want to damage the paintwork, so a nice gentle approach would be good. Thanks

Thumbs up

Boil the kettle and pour a little hot water over the sticker, warm it up and just pick at it with your finger nail it should peel off a treat. Then white spirit and a soft cloth will wipe away any left over residue from the adhesive.

I always use a hairdryer to warm up the glue or a paintstripper (caution not to burn your paint with the last one)
The residu glue you can remove with the oil you use in the kichen for cooking. (sorry for my English, I'm Dutchspeaking)

I used a hair dryer. Job done in under a minute. WD40 got rid of the sticky stuff left behind
