get some sticker remover and a rag to help you get the left over clue off.

I think the Triplediamond dose have bolts...make sure before you go through with it.

the triple diamond doesn't have bolts, its held on, by 3 plastic pieces and 3m tape. If you remove it, you will 3 holes that can be seen. I changed my red diamond out, to the chrome diamond.

yeah pvu_rida is right, if you shave the Diamond, your gonna be stuck with 3 holes, I almost had it off, when I saw the holes...Luckily it had enough stick left to hold. Good luck, use a good sticker remover fluid or something to get the glue off. Its a nice look!

Rather than a hair dryer I would just recomend some fishing line. Thats all I did. Came off nicely, then I just took some solution cleaner, some type of household grease remover or something of that sort of rubbed the left over adhesive off.

dental floss works too. i used some electrical contact cleaner to get rid of the sticky residue
