How to remove the Factory stickers
I recently purchased a 2013 Stella and am having no luck removing the stickers above the glovebox... anyone have any tricks for removing these bad boys??

Try a bit of lighter fluid, it'll soften up the adhesives. Be sure to wash and wax the area afterwards.
EDIT: You could also try the citrus solvent Goo Gone. That works pretty well to, but it leaves a bit of an oily residue and the surfaces will need to be washed afterwards.

At what point does a hobby become an addiction? I'm uncertain, but after the twelfth scooter, it sorta feels like the latter...

Removing Factory Stickers
I got all mine off relatively quickly with a heat gun. Then followed up with citrus cleaner for the residue. Works magic on the badges, too. Just be sure to keep the gun moving...don't want the paint to fail.
