I concur. I think that's what started this mess to begin with. It was a scorching hot day when I went to remove them. I figured "hot enough". Should come right off, right?

As I started to peel, I saw that the glue wasn't coming with it. I got out the heat gun and started in a different spot, no difference. Then I thought maybe it was too hot...so I grabbed some ice and a baggy. Tried that on a section...no good.

Anyway, for whatever reason, I lost that battle badly. It made me jealous to think about all the nice RX3's running around today "de-speeded". ;-)
