  • hand held hair dryer or heat gun
  • dental floss (some people say knife wrapped in duct tape, but that'll scratch the paint)
  • a good bug and tar remover (some people say goof-off or goo gone, but big and tar remover is made for car paint)

heat up each letter and the pull the dental floss behind the letter

I was killing time between class and lunch (when we went to bagel bakery and I saw the 08 STI). We need to find a time when neither of us have work! I always class or work though, its lame
