Hey Super66, yes, get that MW sticker off your car! It should come right off. May need to warm it up with a blow dryer (the only time a man should really use a hair dryer IMHO!). Any residue will clean-up with a little wax.

Word-to-the-wise...anyone ordering or taking delivery of a new car from the dealership should specifically state; "NO STICKERS on my freaking car"!

ha....right on B, I knew you would pull through with the answer....if I ever get this thing back from the dealer it will be first project, they are waiting for a window motor, the window isn't dropping quick enough when you open the door....

I got so excited getting this car, I couldn't believe it, I didn't even notice the stinkin thing on there......the only thing I detest more is the license plate holders with their advertising.....I switched those right away!

Hey Super, us Carrara White Boxster owners must stick together!!

Is your car at MW's now? Call Brian (847-381-8900), and tell him to get that freaking sticker off before you come pick the car up!!

well when i got the car it had the stock black badge, and a part of B was missing, so i took it off and put a silver one on. now i took that off as well.

i took the badge off with a hairdryer and fishing line method, and then after that i put some googone and bug and tar remover on, and everything whiped right off. then i followed with some rubbing compund and now its clean, but you can still see where it originally was.

theres even a worse thing than a sticker on the back of the car, my friend bought a STI and next to the STI logo was a dealership badge, 4 holes drilled trough the lid to secure this ugly thing. he complained and they had to install a new trunk lid and waste his/their time doing this. so it can be worse.

and Super66, if ure thinking of removing it and not sure how to do it, we can get together and i can help you out.
