Use a hair dryer and be sure not to heat them to much and they will peel off perfectly when done slowly while keeping the metal warm

I just picked a corner with my finger and took my time pulling them off.

x2 patience helps... then spray a window cleaner or water on it and clean up all the goo left over.

The easiest way is with a plastic razor blade. That's what the pros use to remove them.

I used hair dryer and peeled. It left zero residue. Took all of 25 seconds per sticker.

mine left alot of residue after peeling with hairdryer and fingernail. Didnt want to risk scratching the paint with a razor blade so I used 'goo gone'.
