Clean, professional pinstripe removal?
I think I've finally found the one, it's flawless except for it has a single pinstripe all the way to the top of the front fender:
 I searched for a couple posts here but I couldn't find a concrete fool-proof way of removal, also haven't found much on youtube yet. The only reason I'm still considering going with this one is because I've been searching the better half of a year looking for the right miles, price and color. It's hard to justify buying something for 20k and risk damaging the clear coat or paint. Thanks

10min with a heatgun/blow drier and it will peel off easily. Or leave it in the sun on a really hot day. A dab og goo-off/adhesive remover on a microfiber for any areas where you didn't get it hot and the adhesive remained on the car.

Sorry if this is a late bump but I dont want you ruining your paint. Walmart sells auto paint friendly goo gone in the auto section. I just used it for the debadging on my car and no clear coat damage happened.
