I've got these mock carbon fiber stickers on both of my door handles from the previous owner and I want them off so the handles will match the rest of the car. Any tips on how I can remove these? I tried taking them off the old fashioned way, but they're on there pretty tight. Help would be much appreciated.

Well the hair dryer worked. It took a friend and I 2 whole hours to finish it. I found out why the guy put the stickers there in the first place. The driver's side handle around the keyhole was scratched up horribly! I went ghetto and filled the scratches in with sharpie until I get around to touching it up. (Luckily, my car is black)
