Safety Reg Removal

Does anyone know how or where I can take the car to get the safety and reg stickers moved to a metal plate. I hate these stickers on the paint...

you can do it your self just get one razor blade and be very careful but technically its illegal to move it once placed by the inspector

or just pay 20 bucks for a new sticker and say someone stole it

I thought about the stole it part, but how do you get it off without messing up the bumper, my car is OBP

sup man umm, well wut I'VE done was dat i took one razor and gently took out the sticker..
no worries itll still be sticky on the other end but be carefull to not get the other end dirty or it wont stick.
after you took um off ur bumper get goo-gone [[you can find dis at long, its only like wut 2 bucks?]] and simply wipe it of untill all the sticky's are gone..
well das wut i did, jus becarefull with the razor. Hope dis helped.

just hold the razor flush with the bumper and start pealing up slow and steady dont pull on the sticker just slowly slide the razor up trying not to stretch the sticker... you wont dig into the paint if your worried about that

Try taking a blowdryer to it first. This should make the safety check sticker rubbery like and and easythe adhesive soft to take off. I wouldnt razor blade it unless you're real real careful..

A razor blade is kind of dangerous and pretty sharp too. Our Techs use putty knife's to transfer the safety checks. It's pretty easy, just take your time.
