removing the toyota from the back

i have noticed in other treads the topic of removing the toyota sign from the back.it is easy all you need is a hair dryer heat it up and peal it off.when you get dusty(like in queensland at the monent)you will still see it for a while but after a few washes it will not be noticed,works a treat

My lux is approx 18 months old now so I was a bit worried about still being able to see the outline of TOYOTA even after the sticker has been removed, what do you think?

It will be fine, if not simply get the polish out and cut it back a tiny bit... too easy!!!

Mine now gone.
Washed and the letters could still be seen, a bit of cut and polish and she's no more.
