How much of a pain in the arse would those be to clean I make it a point now to buy things easy to clean on the car and in the flat. Only downside to living on your own

That is a tidy paint job for a P reg. Focus has not had a wash since i got it Might do it on Thursday Front wheels are now black with all the shit of the motorways

i heated mine up with hair dryer, then used a credit card gently, then white spirit to get glue off. Finally buff it down with polish after washing area with car shampoo.

heres how i did it...
1) heat your chosen badge with a hair dryer untill quite hot to the touch
2)i used a screwdriver with a cloth over the end to lever the badge off
3)use ur nails or a credit card to peel off the sticky tape (if u use some extra heat this can help in removing the tape
4)wash the area and polish it up (i used turtlewax polish)

job done if u need any help jst u2u me
