| Yeah to get those brake covers off I had to shove a heap of big flat head screwdrives on along the outer edges and then yanked the inner section with pliers. Need to really give it your all, lol.

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.

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 www.shiftkits.com.au as well.
