Spider Wire 10lb test line, a little heat, and some adhesive remover...

Simple to do...

Took me all of about an hour, to remove all the logos on the rear, and the door moldings...

Cool, I didn't know it would be that easy. I've got the spider wire in the tackle box, gloves and wd-40 in the shed, and I'll go by Autozone in the morning and get a good adhesive remover! Thanks for helping me out.

Remember, with WD40 and Duct Tape you can fix anything.
If it moves and it shouldn't, use the Duct Tape
If it doesn't move and it should, use the WD40
