I'll post up some pics later when its all done... i've got about 90% of the glue off, I just need to make it look perfect in the edges. I think the pulled tape really looks the best with a hardtop to make it flow better.

Damn, I wish I would have read this before pulling it after I made the post. The pain underneath is PERFECT , but the thing is that I don't think I heated the tape enough before pulling it so now I have glue residue all over the place and it is being a total PITA to take off. With "oops" (like goo gone), I am only rubbing off about an inch every 5 minutes, this sucks.
I would go ahead and grab some wd-40. Spray it liberally on the sticky residue and let it soak for about 3 minutes, then spray some on a microfiber towel and rub it off, it will come right off. Then just do a quick wash and put some wax on and you are good to go

Berlinas ship with no black tape covering the body-matched-painted metal of the windshield surround. The other colors do.
