GooGone isn't working.
A blow drier didn't work.

/shrug

I may end up just buying new badges and plastidipping them black, and continue with the rest of the Nissan badges and handles.
Kev, try some WD40, Carb Cleaner, or Tar Remover if GooGone isn't working.
Blow dryer probably isn't heating it enough. I have a heat gun if you want to borrow it.

If you do dip your badges, buy a can of glossifier and finish them off with that

Would be good for someone wanting fat front tires to go along with 305s!

Oh hotrodz I got the same meth kit that ss_firehawk has if you are interested. Complete aquamist kit, custome tank in the back with two extra spray nozzle so u can have 6 for direct port meth injection and two prior the maf sensors to let the computer know colder air is coming in. I only have a few hundred miles on it mostly dyno miles. Waiting for seb@specialty to box it all up and ship it to me. Might be something to use to keep the car cool in hot summers here. I was gonna sell it to mr.squeeze but he has the exact kit still in the box himself lol

I'll give that a shot tomorrow. I woke up too late today to even begin trying anything (who the hell sleeps until noon? )

If this works, I won't get new badging, but I really do want to dip the front and rear hamburgers and door handles.

Are the hamburgers difficult to remove? I haven't searched any on here yet... that'll give me something to do this evening.

It's a super fine mist so it didn't get soaked by any means. I had a nozzle spraying just post IC and then it travelled a short distance maybe of 2 1/2ft b4 it hit the maf. It didn't bother the mafs at all. If u are spraying to heavy or to close it can bother the maf for sure. It worked well for what little I didn't use it. I was able to gain 100whp on a 50/50 blend of boost juice and 91oct

I'm a happy man, garage cleaned out enough to fit my car and Wifeys car. It's been without a garage for 3 weeks. It's been a supreme pain in the a$$ to keep them clean.

I would be interested but I don't think Seb is a fan of meth. I have asked him about it and he wants me to go e85, but the nearest place to get it is Henderson, NV, 100 miles away! I have a hard time formulating an opinion on meth as the pros and cons are about 50/50. I will probably end up doing whatever Seb recommends.

Dip them with them on the car & just use a toothpick to start the peeling. No need to remove. Its a freakin pain in the ***. Plus the adhesive you buys never goes on like OEM adhesive.

AZSPENG is throwing a get together on Friday afternoon. Free pizza too. They're in Chandler. I plan on going there to do a meet n greet. Supposedly they can make some badass **** for our cars. I think it'd be a good place to know and put on our radar
