Yeah, I'll have to do that then. I need to go take off the old wheel today to get a new tire put on, so I might look at that as well. Thanks again for the idea guys!!

Here's a stupid question guys...

How do you guys like to remove the stickers?? Do you use a razorblade, or just your nails?? I'm affraid of damaging the paint underneath. [&:] Thanks for any help!

Heat Gun to loosen, but not too much to where the paint will chip. Goof Off to remove any remaining sticker gunk....

I just used a hair dryer on "hot" then SLOWLY peel the sticker off. Keep it warm and it will come off with minimal residue.. Then like said above use goo gone to remove any glue.. DO NOT USE A RAZOR BLADE... Its really easy and came off in minutes

Alright. Thanks guys! I don't have a heat gun at the house, but can probably get my hands on a hair dryer this weekend. I'll just give it a shot then.
