Tired of the ricey, OEM i-Vtec DOHC decals? Don't wory I got your fix.

First, identify the decals, and clean the area of all dirt

Then, I rubbed a little Goo-Gone on, and over, the decals to loosen em up a bit. I then dried the area to avoid burning the Goo-gone.

Now, grab your trusty hair dryer and apply even heat to the decal. Don't keep the heat in one place. If you keep the heat concentrated on area, you risk bubbling your paint. I kept my dryer 1-2 feet away from the car, but it depends on how hot your dryer gets. I had mine set to high.

Peel off the decal. The speed you take em off at depends on how hot the glue is.

Don't worry if the decal rips, just keep giving it heat and Goo-Gone. I had to put on a lil more Goo-Gone.

Then, I went back to heating it.

When it's all off, you'll have a some adhesive, sticky, gummy stuff left on the car.

No Sweat! Just throw some Goo-Gone on there and wipe off!
