While waiting for a tow truck to pick up my "limp mode" car, I realized the body shop that just fixed my car put the Z in the wrong position

My car got rained on today. It was only the 2nd time it's been rained on since I got it. I don't think she liked it.

I drive to work today around 9am

I check my Facebook around 11am and see a notification that I was mentioned in someones post.

Some random guy saw my car downtown, posted it saying "Sick Z I saw" and a mutual friend recognized my car and alerted me to it. Pretty funny stuff...

Battled traffic.

Ugh, I think it's about time I looked under the hood and cleaned it up a bit. I haven't to this point yet. I don't want it to be nasty inside.

Trying to get rid of plasti dip on the roof. I put it poorly when I did now it is really a PITA to remove it. Any idea how to make it easier? Would wd-40 help? Would it hurt the paint? Thanks!

I had such a good time with the Z, I am unable to describe it here under the forum rules. Rest assured it was awesome. Our cars are winners.

Hair dryer and goo-gone is what I used to remove my NISMO vinyl graphics

Both helped to soften the material and I removed it by hand, maybe give that a try?
