We used lighter fluid to get the glue off but took ages to do :blink: Not sure on what else to use though? There was a post by Rikos somewhere on here about removing sticky stuff with a few suggestions from members, so might be worth having a quick search for it to see what else people have used to get the glue off? :)

Edit: found it mate CLICK ME.

Bug and Tar remover works a treat.

If you take them off on a really or hot day, or even warm the glue with a heat gun on LOW SETTING or use a hairdrier (careful not to melt the paint mind!) that helps. Then skim under them with denal floss (or similar) and most of the glue should come off with.

May need a good polish of the area anyway afterwards, to remove any possible fading etc.

personally i think the 'LEXUS' and the 'IS200' badges look better below the fog lights. but leave the 'L' logo where it is above the boot lock.

What, like this?

Each to his own I suppose, but I don't like that at all!

need to wait till weather dries a bit first :(, it's becoming really annoying as soon as I wash and polish it rains! It is one fine booty tho :P, on a seperate yet comical note had some "wide-boy" in a integra type-r try it on, was holding him up to 140mph (on a priv road ofcourse :innocent: )

An older one I assume? In a standard IS? Well ya did well. They are 40hp more and lighter, and top out at 145.

yeah it was the older version, not the DC5. I was level upto 100 then it just pulled a little easier to 140 so i conceded, and yes my IS is standard (bar the asthetic touches).
