James Robert Posted November 20, 2018 Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 I'm having my convertible sun visors reupholstered and am thinking of removing the warning stickers on the mirror doors. I hate stickers on my cars, and I think it would look cleaner without them. Opinions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rich_e777 Posted November 20, 2018 Report Share Posted November 20, 2018 Could just stick one of these over the originals. https://goo.gl/images/UJyz6e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Robert Posted November 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2018 Done. Came off easier than I thought. There remains a slight ghost which I hope will fade away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to do a set in vinyl/leather... A local European car upholstery shop is doing them. They are using 1/8" foam backed headliner fabric that matches the correct color code with a blind stitch. They said it was no problem, I'll post the results. Almost anything would be better than the beat-up ones I had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sun exposure can make plastic darker? Not sure I knew that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I thought it was leftover adhesive, but I scrubbed them good with WD40 and a toothbrush. Guess it's just a plastic 'suntan' . Hope it doesn't take another 23 years in the sun to blend. Still better than the sticker, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
