So, I have a 2014 WRX. I'm trying to repair some things that are visual, and one of them is the clear paint protectors on the outside rear quarters. It could use some paint on dings in the front.

I just tried to use a heat gun to pull of the clear stuff, and it is not coming in big chunks but little fingernail size pieces. GRRRR!

So now unless someone has any idea for an easier way to remove the plastic, I'll just sell it as is.

Can a 2014 WRX (non-STI) work in a 818?

is anyone interested in it as a donor?

The 818 was/is designed for the 2002-2007 Impreza/WRX. I think at least one builder has used a newer platform as a donor but not without a lot of ingenuity.

Have you tried THIS (https://www.amazon.com/Remover-Stickers-Minutes-Wheel-toolkit/dp/B00VFACQRE)? I've never tried it, but have seen some advertisment and videos...
