The first thing you need to do is get that ugly crooked dealer name off the rear bumper

Take some fishing line (hopefully on a warm, sunny day) and pull it through the adhesive. There are several methods for removing the the adhesive remaining on the bumper.

It's probably a decal, WD40 will take it off. I used a heat gun on low on the sticker from Carmax on my 2012, then hit the spot with clay & spray detailer. Gone in 10 minutes.

Sadly, it’s not a sticker.

Made a poultice of white vinegar and punked my sister into holding it on the dealer trampstamp for 15 minutes. Adhesive slid off
