Yup, its normal - they come sandwiched between some wax paper and another thicker sheet of paper. You peal the thicker sheet of paper off which exposes the adhesive side of the vinyl, and lets you line up the vinyl because the wax sheet is more transparent. Put on the car, rub each of the letters a bit, and then peel off the wax sheet - voila, instant free advertising...

Uhm... what's up with huge dealer stickers? Never see that here, especially not on enthusiast sort of cars. I wouldn't take delivery of a car in that state. Tell the dealer to get that trash off your car.

No no no, you need to tell them to not put them on in the first place - trust me, I worked back there. The detailers at most dealerships are MORONS - generally, kids in high school or fresh out that they don't have to pay much (or train much, for that matter). They would get a damn razor blade out and remove it that way. If you get a car with a vinyl on it, take it off yourself the right way, don't ask them to remove it...but if you can, just ask to not have it put on in the first place
