Message:
How do i go about getting my bug deflector off. I thought i'd get used to it, but now i've decieded to scrap the money i wasted on it, and take it off. I want to remove it safely without all the paint coming off from underneath.

To get the sticky strips off I just used a pocket knife. Didn't have any problems with it.

I've heard using dentil floss, running it underneath, and then using something like Goo Gone to remove the little bit of "stickyness" left behind. Then just give it a good wash and wash.

soaking the sticky tape with mineral spirits/paint thinner will loosen up the glue. Use it on a rag to wipe off the remaining goo. This is much safer than using Goof-Off or Goo-gone. Just make sure you wax the areas you clean after you are finished. Good luck.
