HondaGuy12, this may sound crazy but someone recommended zippo lighter fluid on a cotton ball back when I wanted to remove my stripes. It takes off all the glui **** w/o a problem and it didn't damage the paint. It's been almost two years since I did it, the paint still intact.
By the way, I like these wheels 10 times better. Looking good man! Post more pics.

So are you changing out your front for the one MXCIVIC had made? Either way your car looks 100% better than when you joined. You are definately headed in the right direction.
