    How about some after pics? Didn't even notice the vinyl for the first 2 weeks I had the truck. Now it sticks out like a sore thumb.

    No heat needed at all. I pulled mine off last night. I used a tooth pick to gently lift one corner of the decal. From there I grabbed it with my fingers and pulled it back over it self. Minimal effort involved and spent no more than 5 minutes to remove all 4 decals.
