Not for the faint of heart - but spray the stripe with wd40, pick up the end with a razor blade and just run it underneath for the length of the car. Ive done it to 4-5 cars with not even a nick left over at the end. Then a quick wash and wax and its done..

I'd heat it (heat gun, hair dryer) and remove it and *not* use a razor blade. Best to do it on a hot day in the sun, at least for removing the strip. Then pull it in the garage to clean off the adhesive.
Use Acetone (nail polish remover) to get the adhesive off, then polish/wax that area as the acetone removes all paint protection.

Just use a hair dryer and peel it off....it takes 10 minutes. You can just use your hands and it'll peel off. I wouldn't bother messing with anything you have to scrape on there.
It's really not a big deal. Those pinstripes are just like a sticker. And if you haven't bought it yet, the dealer will take them off for you.

Are u serious? you NEVER use WD40 around the body of your car... WD40 has a thing called silicon in it which creates fish eyes
... and yes that is the best tool for taking it off sharpie.

1) ask the dealer to take it off before wasting your money on tool that only really has one use.
2) if the dealer says no, take 10 minutes and heat it a little with a hair dryer and peel it off with your fingers. I can't even believe they sell a tool for that!

the tool is for the ones who dont want to risk a scratch in the paint i mean what if my hair dryer is super strong and it rapes my paint i just dont wanna risk anything. Who ever made the tool thanx.!
no thats a type s with the stripe i think some dealer ship put it on there. And i wouldnt buy a rsx base modle only a type s i mean why thats like eating pizza with no cheese or peperonies! and i plan to mod the car and i dont wanna start out at 160 at the crank must be 200 so i atleast have 160 at the wheels 158 something like that at the wheels...
