Try alcohol before wet sanding but DON'T LET IT DRY ANY LONGER!!

Lots of rubbing alcohol and elbow grease will remove it.

Use gasoline......it will remove the paint and not hurt the car, just don't let the gasoline dry on the car like you did the paint!! lol

I think mine were around $50..... totally worth it to me... its permanent and you dont have to worry about them anymore...... the stick on's come off sometimes... and they are more expensive in some cases....

I would recommend going with the decal inserts, I think I paid close to $15 for mine and installed myself. At least if you make a mistake you can just take it off.
