blow dryer and goo gone.

for the bumper sticker, try using floss or fishing line.

don't heat it too long, it could ruin your paint.

i believe this topic was covered a few times already, did you try searching first?

the emblem: use a flathead screwdriver. wrap the head in a towel or newspaper and just pry it off. i recommend a towel because the newspaper can rip.

note: you will see two plastic pieces after removing the emblem. you can remove it with a needle nose but there'll be two holes.

still be careful with the screwdriver. if you can find a plastic putty knife that is what i would use. it will give on impact to the paint where a screwdriver would not. it may be a bit harder to do that way but i find it to be safer to the paint.

Use a blow dryer, then proceed to use a straight edge. That should do the job!

use heat gun/blowdryer as stated previously...and some G00g0ne

Also, use can use a CC/drivers license to help pull up the edges.

Okay. I was just thinking that the fiberglass might not work too well on the plastic. Like if someone or something pushed on the bumper I thought it might crack since the fiberglass is stiffer than the plastic.
