You're probably going to have to sand and polish the light if you want it to look good though, because if not, you'll still be able to see the "CRX". The parts that were covered by the logo will be shiney and new, and the rest will be faded/scratched up.

If its a sicker just heat it up and then peel it off (hairdryer works wonders) . I did that w/ all my stickers on my rex.

Yea, hair dryer and adhesive remover. Just be careful with that Goo-Gone. It will eat some plastics and leave the surface all milky.... don't know about the tail lights, try it first on an obscure spot before you go at it on the middle of your light section. I like the dental floss idea... seems like it should work great.

i don't believe in goo gone and graffitti remover. it'll look good from far away, but if you're up close, but you are definately going to get a film over the plastic. not the method to use for you picky people!

i took off my 'HONDA' badge, the 'CIVIC' sticker on the center piece and the 'Si' badge. just use a razor on the center piece 'CRX' logo, followed by some goo gone.
