Removing fender badge adhesive!
So I got a pair of saleen simulated fender vents. when I took the old emblems off the fenders they left behind adhesive on the body. This is causing the new fender vents to not sit flush with the body. How can I get the glue off? has anyone tried to sand it?

There is a rubber wheel, looks like an eraser. Hooks into your drill or die grinder. Body shops use them all the time. I can't think of the exact name for it right now.

Here ya go. I'm sure you can find one cheaper. Maybe one of the auto parts stores.

^^ THis. Quick easy and cheap. Won't take the paint off and waaaayyyy easier than scrubbing with goo gone. Go to your local autobody supply shop and for like 10 - 15 bucks and your drill you will get them off in minutes....

a warm day, hair dryer or heat gun and elbow grease/goo gone goes a long way. Not worth it to spend 10-15 on the wheel unless you have other reasons to buy it.

I have a rubber wheel and it works wonders. I bought it years ago (My dad does body work for a living). I have used it to remove numerous sets of vent visor left behind 3M tape, fender vent adhesive and sticker residue. It has never once left a mark or scratch, even when I have had the wheel going to where smoke comes off of it. Hit it with a little wax afterwards and you never knew anything was there. Its almost to the wear mark now that says to stop using it.
