I actually just covered the passenger side sticker with one of these:

It's great because it's the same size as the air bag sticker, no need to remove the old one. Just place the new one over top of it.

 

Aesthetic Creations has a few:

Bottle of simple green and lots of patience and soaking, it'll carry that cleaner smell for 2-3 days but looked really good too. I removed them, worked on them in the garage while I tidyed up a little under the hood in the drive way. Soaked scraped very carefully w/ a razor blade soaked more, and itcame off in a million little pieces. The time and care was well worth it IMO.

 

I put my stickers over the originals and they eventually bubbled. You can use denatured alcohol or acetone to soak the original stickers and then let them sit a bit. They'll get very soft and then you can gently scrub them off.

 

i used denatured alcohol. removed the complete visor assembly, soaked a clean white rag with the alcohol, laid it on top of the stickers for about 20 mins, scrubbed em off with said rag. still required a bit of elbow grease but they came off clean.

 

Wonder if that Goo Gone stuff would work or do you think it might hurt the visor?

 

i have no idea how goo gone will affect the visors

 

I tried various methods and chemicals when I did mine. I believe it was either the Goo Gone or WD40...I just can't remember which worked the best.

 

there are some witty ones out there. I bought this one, even though I haven't procured my Mini yet. It was custom made by a NAMer, so I had to get one.

canu tell me who made it?

 

I came across this one somewhere, maybe it was here on NAM.


Maybe you can have a sticker custom made online somewhere.

 

WD-40 worked for me -- and I also found it easier to do by removing visors (it takes a 30 seconds)

 

I used Goo Gone and it did not hurt the visor.
I put a bunch on a paper towel and left it on the visor for about 5 mins which caused the sticker to come off in one chunk. You can't tell anything was ever there.

 

kelw..i will try thta

 

Do NOT use Goof-Off.... it melted my visors.

Plain old rubbing alcohol was working, but I got impatient. Oops.

 

omg... guess i wont use it

 

I placed a paper towel soaked with denatured alcohol on the sticker and let it soak for about 20 minutes before I could peel off an of the sticker. I had to repeat the process on remaining sections of the sticker but for shorter periods of time. I did not remove the visor from the car but I did place a towel below the visor in case anything dripped off. I did not have anything drip off (I did not soak the paper towel that much). It came out good. There is still a slight mark where the sticker was removed but bearly noticable.

 

Is Goof-Off different than Goo Gone (I think it is).
As stated above Goo Gone did nothing bad to my visors.

 

Yes - different product. Goo Gone = safe.
Goof Off = not (for visors).

 

You only need 2 things in the toolbox: WD-40 for loosening things up and duct tape for holding them together.

Well . . . and a hammer for encouraging parts to fit together properly.

 

Are there any interior trim issues?

I imagine things work differently on beige vs anthracite, vs black, etc...

 

I got the stickers from Aesthetic Creations. Works great and the service was speedy. Love the new look.

 

i have neither...
