Well I couldn't take it anymore, I had to loose the Black windshield tape on my Suzuka baby.

Got out a hair dryer, the entire process from start to finsh took less than 25 min. The paint underneath is perfect. I started at the drivers door and it came off in three pieces. WD40 took off the glue (not much was left). I think the car looks much better. I will post some pics soon.

If you have any questions, just let me know. This was a piece of Cake

BTW Black S2K's don't have the tape. After I saw that I knew the pillars were painted.

I agree 100%. I took the tape off several months ago on my silver S and I think it looks much better. Should have done it in the beginning. Like that blue for 2002. Might have been my color if it was offered in '01. Later.

Pics as promised, sorry there not outside, because it never stops raining. Am I living in Seattle, and don't know it?
