Haha. Well, if it's painted on, there's really not much you can do, except sand it off, and repaint it.

Is it stock pinstriping on the Integra? Stock pinstriping is a sticker.

Yes, Everyone they are painted on. I've seen them and they look like $hiT. Actually speedy, they don't look that bad. But you are right, you need to get those damn things off.
