I just removed the Intech OHC stickers off the SR also...... but replaced them with Intech OHC badges!

Thanks for sending them down Linz!

I'd post pics, but have exceeded my monthly download (darn Norton got corrupted and needed a stack of redownloading of software) and so am limited to a slow dialup speed. Uploading pics would take ages! LOL!

Cheers,

GK

If taking off the decals / badges makes a car cleaner, what does adding them do? LOL!

I'm not sure about the forte badge, but the Intech OHC badges are held on by double-sided tape.

Simon (ozfordau) would be able to give you the low down on how to remove the forte badge.

I removed the INTECH OHC stickers and Forte badge by using a hairdrier i held it about 5-8cm away and when it was hot enough i just peeled it away with my fingers, you may need a pin or something to help get the Forte badge off! You may not need to thou!

To clean the sticker residue off the cars panels i used Euceliptus oil and a rag and i got it off!

Good luck if you need anymore help let me know!

Cheers

I removed all the badges as soon as i got my car. AU2/3 sedans don't have any locating holes for badges so they're all gonnne! Also it looks cleaner if you get an AU1 boot ornament without "FALCON" stamped into it, i did this recently and it looks sleek.

Heck no. The TS50 wing will be the only thing taking the place of the stock wing. When I see an AU without a wing, it always seems to me somethings missing.

Agreed! Wing is good! AUs look much better with them.

Mmmmm wing, just like when I have a 1/4 chicken and chips, I always ask for the wing! LOL!
