Default Removing pinstripe

i need your guys opinions, I'm leaning towards removing the pin stripe on my truck. But I'd like to know what you guys think, also what's the best way of doing it?

I say remove them. Use a 3M eraser wheel.

You got it. Makes it super easy. I have one and it's how I remove dealer decals off my vehicles.

Be careful with the wheel. They work great, but can mess up the paint is you're not careful. I had used a heat gun to take the 4x4 logos off.

I'd go the route of a heat gun first if you've never used an eraser wheel before.
