Cool Visor Sticker or Removal

Anyone purchase this? Or is it possible to remove the stock warning sticker?
If it can't be removed, this looks like a good option.

Lemme see if I got this straight.

The complaint is that there's a huge, ugly yellow and white sticker on the visor.

The "solution" is to put an equally huge, equally ugly yellow and white sticker on top of the stock sticker.

And the buyer of this sticker needs to be informed what kind of car he's driving. Because he probably forgot.

Hell, I say go for it. Easy +25 HP right there son. The company selling them should be charging $50 for this.

Get matte black vinyl and cut it to the right size to cover the sticker. That's what I did.

Got this: [ame="http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/social/swf/B0032JJS5O/o=ShareProduct/ref=tsm_1_aw_swf_d_sp?vs=1"]Amazon[/ame]

It's a slightly different black but not that noticeable.

Did the same thing and covered it black to hide the yellow sticker on the sun visor. Looks much better. Would not try to remove the warning sticker because others in the forum have tried and failed.

Get the visors covered with alcantara or leather from JPM Coachworks. It's a little pricey but well worth it imho.

I fucked up the visor really bad trying to rub it off with goof-off. The plastic cover got all warped and I couldn't get any of the glue residue off. To be fair, I was an idiot and didn't let the goof-off soak long enough.

I ended up following this DIY: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32333

My visors look amaaazzing now.
