SVX emblems ripped off during movie
I took my girlfriend to see a movie the other night and when I came out someone had thought that it would be a great joke to rip off my SVX logos on the sides above the rear wheels. One came of perfectly clean the other one left behind black sticky crud. Is there a way to clean that stuff off. So then I should be able to just buff it right? Cuz even though one came off cleanly you can still see where they both were if you look closely.

I used goo off when mine became faded. Took the black crud off, and not a glimpse of them ever being there.

The one that didn't come off cleanly they must have had a a hard time with it cuz they nearly ripped that panel off. I need to go to Home Depot and get some sort of caulk

Believe me if I knew who the guy was he would be most uncomfortable right now. Nobody was around to ask if they saw anything. Lucky for whoever did it, cuz I don't forget things easily. My friends call me a port city cuz I harbor. Oh wait, I don't have any friends

I wonder if having BUSH bumperstickers taped to my back side windows had anything to do with it? I do live in Assachusetts after all.

Yes, Goof Off works wonders and you can use it on paint. I use it to remove the sticky mess from my test stickers I make from my car.

I agree... Sorry to hear about the vandalizing
I try to keep no stickers on my car at all to avoid drawing any attention (such as bumper stickers with offensive sayings, which president i support even though I dislike them all, audio stickers etc.) The only stickers I have are my rutgers parking stickers which I hate putting on also.

I agree with not using stickers to advertise your car. In fact my car's exterior mods are subtle enough that only SVX owners would notice.
I keep the stereo door closed and park away from other cars when possible.

WD-40 is the stuff you need. Be sure to wipe clean after you get the goo off.
Than SUX bigtime!
