You can use a razor to get the sticker off the window. But the bumper will be a little more difficult. I would say just pick it off with your finger. After you get most of the crap off use some Goo Gone to get the sticky junk off.

I have a sticker in my back window for my university Supposedly it can be removed by using a hair dryer according to the directions.

When I got the car I tried removing all of the state park stickers my brother put in the front window. A razor took of most of it, but a lot of the sun-baked glue stayed. It took a lot of elbow grease and ammonia-based cleaner to get it off, and in the right light I can still see shadows of the stickers

The straight edge razor is the best method as everyone stated along w/ the goo gone. It will take away any residue that the razor doesn't.

Looks like I need to get some goo gone

Hey James, are y'all still coming up here this weekend? I'm trying to coordinate the SEWI meet with your visit.

Take the razor blade and some 100 grit sandpaper or so and run those pointy tips side ways and at an angle to kind round them off slightly. Don't want to gouge or scratch any glass, do ya?

This is an extra step you can do to make sure you don't scratch the crap outta your glass........

I'm not coming up. I just found out that is might be happening this morning from zum. I think she and static are though. I hadn't heard if it was going to happen at a later date after not going last weekend and this was a little short notice for me.
