so, i've got the two little pinstripes things on the side of my car and i need to get rid of em. i think i read something not long ago about a couple people that have done that. i'm just wondering how to get em off safely without damaging the paint underneath.

thanks

The reason they did this is will piss off any original owner of a pinstriped car. Those pinstipes, I may be over exaggerating a little, but are almost a hundred bucks for each side. The dealership does this to get every little penny out of you. Don't believe me? Go over to your local dealership that has a pinstriped car and look on the dealer price tag list, and look for pinstripe. rolleyes.gif
