I started to take the mlds off but just took off the small ones and thought I would try this look. Now I think the rest should come off. Stay or go??

I agree. What ever you decide to do, you can't leave it like that. Even if it is YOUR car.

LOL I watched a C5 autocross yesterday that had the same thing done. It looked really odd, in my opinion.

I will check back later tonight but it looks like when I go home I should find the fishing line and adhesive remover. I know, this BSM thing won't go away. Thanks for all opinions.
