have you tried bug and tar remover? You'll also have to worry about the holes that are left behind from the Accord badge on the back.

I used sticker remover and a blow dryer to get the rest of the glue off, all though it didn't really matter since when the holes were filled that area was sanded down.

3m makes a adhesive remover for badges ans pin striping and such. I've seen it at a few auto parts stores and walmart used to carry it. Its 6 bucks a bottle or so. Another option is that goo gone or whatever that citrus stuff is. Go look at walmart or whatnot its over in the housing stuff near the paints I believe

actually, ligher fluid does work really well. worked to get nasty ass stick goo off my friends windshield when we didnt have anything else. before they made the sticky stuff removers, i used to use lighter fluid. my grandma was the one who told me to do that, old hill billy secrets or something. lol.

just smear some peanut butter on that, let is sit for about 10-15 minutes and wipe it off with a rag. Cheap as hell, and works damn well too.
PS> Even though you do plan on filling the holes, b/c you're not doing it right away, I would highly suggest going to home depot and getting a few plastic plugs for the holes for now b/c if water gets in there it'll rust out that trunk lid mighty quick.

use wd-40 and use your nail to pick it away, never use razor blade... been there done that shit, dumb... end up repainting...

The ones that say Honda or Accord on the rear lid have 2 holes each. The one in the lower right corner is the one without holes.
DON'T use a razor blade. Do you guys even care about your paint job? Just put some elbow grease into the stuff while using goo gone.
If you use a scraper use a plastic one but be careful not to scuff the paint.

I can't even remember how many times this has come up. There's even body filling and body repair tips and how-to's in the HOW-TO and FAQ Sections.

You feel like a mature senior 3gee member now? Just give the newbee the answer to his question and call it a day. Danm, comments like that pisses me off.
