I would also have to say heat gun. Get a portion of the decal lifted and start spraying some 3M Adhesive remove on there.

Yep, heat gun. I know a guy who does vinyl for a living, he uses a heat gun to remove old vinyl from cars. Just make sure you dont hold the gun in one place too long, they get really hot and it can probably damage the paint.
