    The easiest way to get them off (other than the slow-but-sure method w/ a credit card), is to heat them (carefully!) with a heat gun. They almost jump off. The sticky residue comes off with turpentine (NOT paint thinner or any lacquer remover, either of which will definately take paint off your car). Turpentine is harmless to dried paint.

    And, I haven't decided if I want to take mine off. Heck, I'm even thinking about adding a BIG Honda sticker (6"x48") to each side.

    I was considering removing the Civic and leaving the SI badge, it would really confuse people.
    I'm thinking about taking the side stickers off. I don't like how the i looks. Maybe if it was I-VTEC instead of i-VTEC. I don't know, stupid I guess. I may take the side ones off and get some DOHC stickers to replace them. Not sure yet.

    Now that I know that the "VTEC" system only has a low profile cam for the intake that switches over to the normal cam lobe at 2200rpm(!), I don't want to go around with big stickers trumpeting the "VTEC" engine. There is no high rpm cam lobe for the Si. I'm getting rid of my side stickers.

    removed the i-Vtec crap and the civic badge from the hatch --- pics in my thread -- see "taikahn - Denver, Colorado" in the "Members Rides" for pics...

    This last weekend I added the grille-tech black metal race grill to the front, tinted the front side orange reflectors to near black.... I also put stickers from the tuning place I go to and what not in a stealth location --- pics soon of that.

    I think the Si without stickers and less of the colored reflectors everywhere looks great. With them its too busy.

    detail dept. or shop should have what they call prep solvent
    to remove the glue on badges/the stickers use a heatgun or strong hair dryer and they peel off/use prep solvent to remove any glue residue
