My paint is flawless, i guess ford had a good day when they made mine. Given all the info should i go for it or not??????? 99 SE KKM K&n air BNM gauges CAT Exhaust

As for getting them off I used an old shirt and my thumb. No blistering at all. I rubbed the tack from the back of the car towards the front (kinda just rolls). You'll have to see what works best for you though.

I used it to remove the same mess left when I removed the 24v badges on the car. -Brian- 98 SE DTec MTX

Sorry for the late reply, but I was referring to the sticky glue underneath. It came off very easily if you pulled the opposite direction your are peeling it in. Hope that helps if you haven't already done them Justin 1998 Black SVT jcboeckl@unity.ncsu.edu
