cubanmike26 is a glorious beacon of light

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.

im not sure if you even need this info but... i happen to buy a heat gun from home-depot (and was going to return it a few days later but opped no too) and in less then an hour i had both my factory pin stripes off and glue free, the next weekend i took my wifes two "after market" trd and both both pin striped decals and all that s#it come off under half an hour... i followed both with goo-gone no probs......... and yes the rims are sick
