Try a heat gun, and some hot water with a squeegy(sp) or credit card, that should work. What kind of a sticker is on the body that the dealership put on? If all fails then try lighter fluid, and wipe on quick, I dought the fluid will mess up the paint if its not on too long. Good luck and congrats on your 7!!

Goo-gone works great for removing stickers on glass...it would probably mess up the paint though.

i finally got it all off with a credit card and goo gone

im not sure how much goo gone helped but i think it softened it up a bit

and yea it took me a/b 2 hours or so just sitting there chippin away at it with a credit card

- and the paint is fine i dont think it messed it up at all and i dont think this car had a huge amount of wax on it anyways
