    Bought used - 2nd owner. When I purchased my truck, it didnt have stickers on it. I took it to OBX last summer & with the salt air, I saw where old stickers used to be.

    Fast forward a few months. I had to get the truck tinted & you can really see the old stickers outline now. Ughhhh.

    My wife said we’ll just have to add our own. I hate the idea of putting stickers on the pro, but we’ll see. I wouldn’t give a shit but it’s the fucking hangover baby!!!

    I don't think much can be done at this point. Either replace the whole window or just try your best to forget it lol; sorry, brotha!

    Sorry, man, but I don't even see anything in the pictures you posted. I know it's hard to do, but literally no one will notice this except you. Maybe it's more noticeable in person, but at this point, you just have to come to terms with what you are willing to "see" every day when you walk up on it. I think it looks fine and just like stock, but maybe others can see something? IDK, help me out everyone.

    I’d be more pissed at the red arrows and shit that someone drew on the windows.


    I can’t see anything either.

    Try using a clay bar on the window. If that doesn’t work contact a detailer to polish the window

    Try a razor and some WD-40 . We used to use that to remove reflectors from brand new motorcycles.

    I just had success using goo gone’s new gel spray plus a razor blade to get those god awful “Toyota alarm” and “Sirius” propaganda stickers off every single damned window in the vehicle. I’m surprised they didn’t put a sticker on the rear view and vanity mirrors too…maybe in the ‘23’s they’ll get around to it.

    Just detailed my windows with Sprayway window cleaner and Magic Eraser. Only thing I found to get rid of the wiper tracks.

    Keep it wet and light on pressure and keep it away from the paint. Only use on the outside due to tint.
