Take the old ones off, put the new ones on.

Wide open for that one, eh. Good joke man. Specificaly how to remove them without damaging paint (decals are 16 ft long).

I would take a hair dryer and see if I couldn't soften them up enough to scrape them off with a plastic putty knife. Then some Goof Off to clean up the old glue.

wvit100's method is what I do. Works well.

You may notice a color diference in the finish where you remove the old decals, might be a good idea to buff the area to remove the shadow from the old decals.<br /><br /> Jim
