Help removing decals

Is there any way I can remove the decals off the sun visors?

Probably will not look good when you get them off but do a search their is some nice stickers you can put over them.

Try a search on this. It has been covered several times and from what I have read, different methods work, but not to a 100% satisfaction of most CF members trying.

I think an after market visor, with no caution stickers was suggested as a better fix. Goo-off etc. gives spotty results,I have not tried yet.
Best of luck

sure you can use a heat gun but I will warn you that they will leave behind some adhesive that will be noticeable

I took them off my 05 C6 with high heat from a hair dryer and some generic adhesive remover from AutoZone and a stiff brush. After 2-3 months the shadow on the visors went away.

I just covered them up on the 06 coupe with some stickers I bought from a C6 forum sponsor.

It was a pita just to peel the stickers off, but after that was done I used Goo Gone for the glue residue followed by Westley's Clear Magic cleaner and they came out great.

Removed mine and it looks great. Used a hair dryer to get them off and Goo Gone to remove the remaining adhesive. Followed up with some black shoe polish and you can't tell they were there.
