Well I took a little bit last night and decided to pull the stickers from the rack. All are off but a ton a residue remains, I tried goo-gone but didn't help so tonight I going to try some real fine steal-wool and see what happens.

I dunno if I'd use steel wool on plastic. I've found that zippo lighter fluid works really well to take stickah glue off, but i dunno if that would be ok to use on plastic either

I was going to say just rattle can it a ton, build up a nice layer of paint so all the residue is flush with it.

WD-40!!

Followed by rubbing alcohol...

Acetone works too, but test it on the plastic first.

Steel wool will ruin it..

Many nails later they were fixed and were able to be patched so I didnt have to replace the tires! That was a relief! Then I brushed her off and took her round the block! Note this snow is from only last night to tonight so about 24hrs!!! I <3 it!!!

Alright cuz I'm bored and it's early an update...

I FINALLY ordered my rear diff mount from Ringer Racing yesterday!!! So it wont sound like one of the hookers in the trunk woke up and is trying to kick her way out... I got the Apikol "RACE" red rear diff mount, I also ordered the rear diff crossmember bushings "Street" blue that's all that they make!!! A few hours later I got a call from Mike @ Ringer who informs me Apikol has the Race in the crossmember bushings so brand new they arn't listed on any site for sale and no one carries them yet... But guess who is getting a pair... THIS GUY!
