Le Mans stickers on 996

[Irish]

Evening all,

Planning on stickering up my car for with two stickers on the door and one on the bonnet (the rest on glass).

Should I be worried about the paintwork?

wax it up first then they should be easier to remove, ive already put a few layers on and plan for at least one more layer before I put the stickers on.. .. just to be safe

When removing the stickers, gently soften them with a hair drier first.

Avoid using 3M reflective stickers unless they go over a normal vinyl background. The 3M stuff snaps easily and whilst it looks stunning in photos, it is a mother to get off.

DITTO ABOVE!!!

never has a truer word been spoken. And don't just wave it at the sticker then let rip. Keep the hairdryer on the sticker and peel it back at 180 degrees as this puts least stress on the paintwork ... then you should have no probs.

I mistakenly thought I didn't need the hairdryer when I peeled the pistonheads decal off the BMs rear bumper... BIG mistake ... easily fixed though with a bit of touch up and a bigger P.Heads decal
