Morning everyone! Just a quick question.

I want to remove the bump strips and de badge my MK2 yaris. I'm just wondering if there is any unsightly holes underneath any of the bump strips or badges? I want to do it myself so need to know before I start attacking it :)

Most everything on cars these days is put on with double-sided tape and will just peel off with a little heat, like a hair dryer. For removing the badges, a section of fishing line run back and forth behind them will take them off easily. To remove the glue left behind, I use a product called Pure Citrus, it's an air freshener sold by WalMart here is the States.

Here is the link,

My Wife uses this stuff as a Store Projects Manager, for removing shelf pricing labels!!
