your best bet is a plastic razorblade, fingernail, or credit card to peel the pinstriping off. Then to get the excess stuff off something like goo-gone or acrysol works great.

just be extra careful with your paint!

Heat it up with a hair dryer if its not already hot out. Use a credit card or something and start to peel it away. There will probably be residue from the adhesive left over. Use Tar & Bug remover OR a detailer spray and a clay bar. That actually seemed to work the best.

Best way go to auto zone and buy goo gone sticker lifter kit...
Its like 6 bucks but its pretty usefull they have a prying thing that wont scratch paint then rub glue off with goo gone.

that stuff works, but so does gasoline - just need to wash car really well afterwards and possibly a new wax
