hello everyone! i been lurking the forums for about two weeks and decided to take the plunge. the wealth of information i get from this forum is staggering. i bought my is350 from larchmont, ny 3 weeks ago and i love this car. but the dealer put this dealer decal/sticker thingy (is that what is called?) right next to the rear license plate that is driving me nuts. i don't really feel like advertizing for them on my car... i tried to take it off with my hands but it won't come out. if anyone knows how to get this off i'd really appreciate it.

also i have a question regarding winter tires. mine came with the summer tires and i'm planning to get a set of winter tires. what do you guys recommend? is there a place in queens or nassau county where i can get the tires and have it mounted?

thanks and have a great day!

I got stuck with one of those too. I asked my tint guy to take it off. They do great detailing so I knew they would ease it off without damaging the paint.

I've been starting to think about the winter tires too. I don't see 18" Blizzaks on Tirerack.

welcome to the CL! a hair dryer should take off the sticker...if any residue is left goo-gone will take care of that.

thanks for the replies everyone. i'll get around to use the hair dryer to get the sticker off this weekend. i went to a local car mart and noticed that goo gone has petrollium distallates in it. will this be okay on the paint on the car?

thanks

Use Bug and Tar if you are nervous but goo gone is fine. Be sure to rinse it off what ever you use.

Congrats on the new ride.

use a hair dryer like others said....with the goo just give your ride a good wash and you won't even need the goo removal stuff. Oh ya enjoy your ride and post pics!

Take it back to the dealer with a contract detailing your advertising fees. They will take it off for you.
