I'd like to remove my bonnetstripes I got about 4 or 5 months ago on my 1year old IB/W MCS. I know how to remove them but I don't know what I'll find underneath. Is there any marks/fading etc to be expected?

Thanks,
Silakka

Shouldn't be too bad after only a few months. A good clean, polish, and wax afterwards should do it. You'd notice more after a longer period of time.

Thanks, I used a hairdryer and they came easily off. No traces left behind.

Now the mini looks bare, I want those stripes back on

!! Had to remove the old ones, they had been beaten badly by stones... Have to ask my local signshop to do them again
