Any suggestions to how i would go about taking my giant Saxo Stickers off my car?
I no that one side looks asthough it has been sprayed around ill take pics later. It looks as though the paint is peeling around it, not sure why.

just get the panels sprayed, if you can prep them yourself then it will bring the cost down a lot :y:

as said in this post use a heat gun or hair dryer until they are warm and a quick polish, i would get the panel resprayed:y:

so were the stickers left on with the car resprayed or is it just the paint faded and oxidised under where the sticker has been??
if you say the paint is coming off, do your best by heating it up as said and peeling the stickers off carefully

Im not sure, It may be that they have oxidised, I dont see why they would have gone to the rouble of spraying around, as surly that would be very hard.
Gazzza - Yeh i did want to keep with the black and white theme, but personally the saxo stickers are abit tacky!!!!
Im thinking of going alll white, including the side skirt thingys. like below -
(whoevers car this is, very sorry for stealing the pic, obviously i just mean colourwise i will be doing hopefully)
