I'm sure I'm the only guy this has happen to but when I was removing the glue I used my thumb to rub it back and forth to remove it ,I didn't pay attention to my thumb getting tender.
Well after a few seconds more, my thumbs layer of skin ripped right off.

Seriously one of the most idiotic moments in my life.

O haha. I used wax-free dental floss to cut the bowtie from the tape, then lots and lots of goo-gone. I used this plastic applicator that game with a screen protector for my phone to help remove it. I would suggest using fishline though, I went through a lot of floss. And def heating it first is a good idea.

With the exception of a few, particularly the hood spear badges that say LLT or 3.6L I agree with you.

That said, I do want this either on the driver's side edge of the front of thehood, or on the trunk lid where it goes vertical just above the right tail lights:
