Got mine off with a heat gun on very low to warm up the glue, then rubbing in small circles with a white cloth and some eucalyptus oil. (I stress white cloth as I used a green microfiber first and it actually transferred color into the paint - had to cut n polish it out with some pretty aggressive compound).

Wow on a side note your car looks mint. The paint is like brand new, most white v35s I seen are dull and faded but yours is like brand new condition!!!!!

I did mine with a heat gun and fishing line, took them off no problem. I got the sticky adhesive off with.......WD40 (it works a charm, try it!!)

But yes, you will get the outlines of the letters left on your paint. Either heavy cut & polish as some have, OR just have that section of your boot resprayed, which i did & you'd never had even guessed they were there.

On a side note, that bug & tar remover stuff did not do much when i tried it lol

      Import insurance in 2025

      You would probably do a lot better in a claims process then most people. When I called the insurance company, they were surprised I read the pds because according to them almost no one does lol.

      Yeah it should be, but I wouldn't be surprised if the insurance company tries to pull some argument out of their ass to avoid paying you out.

      On some cars like MR2 Turbos they're notorious for not letting the wastegate open far enough to avoid overboost, especially certain cheap downpipes. If adjusting "percentage cycle" fixes it then it's just an electronic control issue, not a hardware one.

      Using Trickle Chargers

      Same.  It's depressing to say this but the skyline can go months on the charger between drives.

      Using Trickle Chargers

      By Duncan · Posted

      I often leave mine connected weeks at a time. The main one I use is the old model of this, it has 2 important features - choose battery chemistry other than lead acid (most of mine are AGM) - power supply mode which you can use to try and recover dead flat batteries as "smart" chargers often don't recognise a dead flat battery is connected https://www.projecta.com.au/products/IC10/intellicharge-10a-bat-chgr The Ctek I  use was meant to have a battery test mode as well but it doesn't work 100% of the time so I am pissed at them. The distributor did everything possible to make warranty and support difficult so I'll stay away in future. The main thing with a "trickle" charger is it has multi stage programs, ie once the battery is full it turns the current right down to just maintain the charge....in the old days we just used real "trickle" chargers for that which had a maximum output of say 500mA which was safe to just leave connected to dumb old lead batteries.
