    gasoline will take it off. Just make sure you clean the area w/ water immediately afterwards. I used gas to debadge my trunk and it worked like a charm.

    The city of Richfield as Bielke said has music and beer in a parking lot on July 3rd every year. Its a fun time until some foo tries to ruin your day by defacing your ride.
