Does anyone else have this on their dash?

[Moultese]

This came on my dash from the dealer, but it's crooked and looks stupid. I was just wondering if anyone else had this or if my dealer added it on? Either way it's coming off in about 2 minutes.

yeah,i think the 08.5 ms3 is the only ones that have it.

My "09" does, but it's production date is also 07/08 so it's just an 08.5 basically.

Same with mine

that crookedness would annoy the crap out of me....is it just a sticker? Looks like you could just peel it off.

DON'T peel that off!!!!!!!!!!!! You will lose some hp!! It was put there for a reason.

there was another thread about this and i think there was some concern that this was actually part of the piece itself and it wouldn't just "peel" off without messing up that black piece?

 

[Moultese]

I mean, it's obviously just a sticker. And whoever put it on, put it on crooked. It's annoying. I haven't taken it off yet but I will tomorrow. It just looks really cheap. It'd be different if it was a window style sticker where just the letters stuck, but this sticker has a "clear" background that reflects light and just makes it look cheap.

Rip that s*** off and burn it.

 

[RUMBLEFISH]

Its a sticker and on mine the corner was pulled up. I just peeled it off because it looked cheap.

 

[Moultese]

Just took it off. Used dental floss to take off the sticker. It left some residue so I took some goo-gone, sprayed it on a microfiber towel and it came right off. Looks 100% better now. Luckily the sticker still had some glue on it so now it's sitting nicely on my tool box.

 

[kickniteasy]

good to know that it can be taken off without incident

 

[Jon MS3]

i dont know, i think it really compliments the floor mats, seats, and door sills(ricer)

mines coming off too

Glad I don't have the piano black trim in my '07.

It was a b**** to keep clean in my 04 RX-8 and now in my 07 MX-5

 

[kickniteasy]

looking at it, it'd be pretty sweet if the letters were indented (so actually a part of the piece, not just a sticker) in the panel and were maybe a flat black or something more stealth than red.

 

[Moultese]

I would have kept it on if it was straight and not such an obvious sticker. Regardless, I took it off w/o any kind of problems and it looks a lot better. I'd definitely recommend goo-gone or a similar product. I tried at first windex and a paper towel and it wasn't coming off. Just a little bit of goo-gone and a microfiber towel took all the glue off in about 2 seconds.

i hate to tell you, but it was not the sticker. the car is out of alignment!!

 

[Moultese]

ZOMG I knew it. Ever since I took the sticker off, my car pulls hard to the left. Also, I dynoed my car and lost 17 whp.

my 08.5 has it, but it's not crooked, looks clean, and blends in alright. It's the only sticker I haven't tore off.
