Just be careful you don't use too much glue.

The 4.0 stickers will come off alot easier with a hair dryer, but be careful not to concentrate the heat for too long in one place or you'll damage the paint too.

It'll take a while, but you'll be able to peel it off when it's warm, I used my nails.

another little tip from REPCO :) if you want to get rid of the yellowing on your head lights weve got a new product in from the states called "PURPLE" its a polish thats spose to be the ducks nuts of polishes they reckon you can polish your car in direct sunlight with it :) but the rep told us that it is perfect for removing the yellow from pollycarbonate headlights too :) :) :)

:) ive got mods on the go for my XR8 already and I havent even picked it up from the dealer yet :) I ordered a genuine EL XR8 front for it yesterday. Im also ordering a full tickford body kit on monday (minus the boot spoiler) and I'm getting straight cut timing gears, also a factory upgrade alarm is going in next week and the stereo will go in as soon as I get time (Stocktake starts at work next week) :( when i put the kit and new bumpers on I will also be changing the red (pink) stripes to black ones and the red XR8 badges will be replaced with black ones. Then if I have enough cash left after all that i'll get an electronic shift kit from http://www.shiftkits.com.au as well.

I dont have any parts dude. Im buying them all. I'd rather be modifying a car at 16 than doing it at 30 with 2 kids a house a fiance and an ex wife to suport. oh and a wedding to pay for in october :) I'm not saying it's a competition or anything I was just telling everyone what I'm doing to mine. so hope there was no offence mate............
