Default Chrome "CORVETTE" Letters
Stupid move on my part, but I applied one letter wrong on the rear bumper. Anyone know what I can use to remove the adhesive, without harming the paint or bumper.

Rubbing alcohol or Goo Be Gone should work.

This is my second set...

I did the same thing and a hair dryer and goo be gone worked great.
I have since decided no tettering and the embossed look is better.

Goo gone works.

I'd get another set of chrome letters. They really look sharp!

BTW, these are chrome, just bad lighting......
