Very easy to do. Didnt even heat mine up. Credit card behind it until you have enough to hold onto. Tear it off all the war and then use spirit wipe or similar to remove the glue.

Looks alot better without them in my mind!

i wouldnt just tear it off, mate done this and ripped his paint work off :S . i use autoglym intensive tar remover from halfrauds, soak it along the top of the bump stop, let it drip down through the sticky strip, leave it a couple of minutes, then it will near enough fall off. then if theres loads of sticky strip left get a store card, use the tar remover, scrape away, keep applyin tar remover till gone. job jobbed.
