Sticker Removal

Got the ol' 99 EG back from Rocklin HD Collision Repair Center (GREAT Job!!!) and have new black crash bars with all of those darn stickers. What is the best way to remove them without scratching the finish?

I've used a heat gun and finished up w/ a 'lil 'goof off'. Works great the first time every time. I reckon a blow dryer would get 'er done if you dont have a heat gun in the garage. Stickers suck......

Blow dryer or any other type of device that will blow hot air on the sticker. I wouldn't use a curling iron as it will melt not only the sticker but the paint below.
Easy job with the hair dryer. Wipe down with WD 40 to remove the remainder of the sticky.
