LoL....if I were you...Id hate the interior more than that windshield sticker! Man that interior is ugly!

Anywho...take a flat blade razor knife and carefully peal it back. Once it is off, you can go back with some goo gone or the like and get all the sticky crap off. Then clean the windshield as you normally would.

Good luck.

Get rid of the damn blue interior.....ugh.

that blue with white interior is pretty bad man

its not so much the blue, just that its all different shades of blue.

Nah....it's both.

LMAO!!!
A quicker way to get it off is run it off of a cliff.. that will fix that sticker real quick.

But i'm not flaming... to each his own.. xtremeskier was right about the straight blade.

I have a nice MAZDA sticker on my back windshield that I got off ebay. It looks good...other than the fact that it's slightly crooked.

Ill post a pic of it sometime.

Heat gun or hair dryer, heat it up and use a razor blade, comes off very easy.

The interior isn't that bad. Though it does stand improvement--but then that's what an owner would do right?

First to things i saw and Emidiatly "Get rid of that sticker" came to mind.

Then i read the rest of the post! LOL but yea your question has already been answered, and i won't comment on interior since i have to get rid of a bad 1 as well :(

congrats on the new car, looks like the last owners spent a lot of time at the pepboys though, haha

honestly, it looks rediculously goofy in these pictures :-P the blue i mean. its not that bad when you sit in it. oh well, if other fc owners dont approve...looks like im changing it. :-P thanks on the sticker help though

...make it go away!!!

haha yea cause your sitting ON it and can't see it. ;)

:rlaugh: :rlaugh: yeah dude the blue is bad...

alright so im getting an rx-7 in couple days here (as soon as the guy gets it all fixed and running and what not long story blah) anyways, there are these REALLY bad white flame stickers on the side and im wonderin what the easiest way to get them off is without ruining the paint. if it cant be done without ruining the paint, ill seriously ruin the paint to get them off. theyre so bad. i just hope the paint isnt like darker under the sticker but we shall see.

Nice ride, looks just like my first 7 (exept for the fugly interior)

To be honest as ugly as the blue is, id take it over my faded burgunday/vomit green any day of the week.

i like how the strut covers are armoralled and the rest of the engine is a mudball

use a blow drier.

A heat gun (Hotter than a blow dryer) would be optimal. Heat the decals up and lift them with a teflon scraper or spatula. Then goo gone will clean up the sticker residue.

Put some ammonia in a spray bottle and wet the sticker down. Then put some saran wrap over it and let the ammonia soak in. That will soften the adhesive and the banner should pull off in one piece. To get the remaining adhesive off use ammonia or isopropal alcohol and 0000 steel wool or a scotch brite pad.
