removing graphics

I'm wanting to change up the look on my '05 and am thinking of removing the graphics on the side. I was wondering if I will still be able to see the outline of them after removing them and buffing the entire truck? They have been on the truck since it was new, but the truck is always garaged.

There is a high chance that in some light / angles you will see it. The sun is nasty and you will most likely after 5 years still have SOME kind of difference in original paint color vs a little bit of fading. I say high chance, because it's not 100%. It also depends on the color as well. Good luck!

Use an eraser wheel or a heat gun. Do not hold the heat gun in one spot very long. Took mine off after 9 years and it looks fine......
