Default Removing visor warning labels

I’ve been able to remove those ugly warning labels on all my cars except one. My Lexus has them on BOTH freaking sides of the visor. The label that was on the fabric side of the visor came off fine with the hair dryer but the other side on the plastic (please don’t let me hear how Corvette interior is plastic…so is my Lexus) vanity mirror cover. This label is not budging, it almost seems like it’s painted right on there. I’ve tried goof off but that doesn’t seem to have an effect on it. I’m to the point where I’m considering sandpaper. Has anyone had luck removing this kind of label?

Some warning labels are screened and cannot be removed without damaging the fabric.

That's what it looks like here only it on plastic. I'm really thinking about sand paper, it canm't look worse than those stupid warnning labels.

Default Might have to sand them off

If they are screened on and will not peel off, sand to rough up, and applying a few coats of color matched interior paint should do the trick

I'm thinking of having both recovered, it's the easiest way.
