Dealer sticker

Neles · 01-15-2022, 01:26 PM

Hi Guys. Just picked up my new G05 yesterday. The dealer put on their crappy sticker on the back. Any good way to remove this?

Sorry if the image uploaded side ways.

your fingernail followed up with some goo-gone works wonders.

If you're in a cold spot, you can heat it gently with a hair dryer or heat gun - that will make it a little easier (careful not to get warmer than what's comfortable to the touch). And as said before a little goo gone, will clean it up well. At least it's not like the old days when they would sometimes punch the metal with their emblem! 😐

that's a gawd awful logo to place on your X5! I'd take that off with steel wool to ensure its removal and just deal with the aftermath if I had to

I'd ask the dealer to do it, but as others have said any bug & tar remover should work (goo gone, rapid remover, citrol, etc)

What is this CarMax? Good grief.

So i used my heatgun and a plastic card. It came off real nice with no residue thankfully. All good now.

My dealership only puts stickers on used vehicles, never new ones.

Always useful to have a 3M Adhesive remover on hand. Non-abrasive and paint safe (have used it in my F80 as well as on Carbon Fiber bits), and a lot quicker than other methods.
