Looking better and better!
Oh, just wondering...are you using that 3M eraser disk? It's suppose to remove the vinyl AND the glue without damaging the fiberglass sidewalls.
I tried the 3M eraser when I changed the vinyl stripes about 8 years ago. Very time consuming. It will burn up a electric drill. I used my air drill for a while but finally give up and purchased some DuPont Dura Prep 502 decal remover. I suspect the eraser would work fine for small jobs. I had almost enough 502 left to do the job again but alas I had to purchase a little more from a different company because DuPont no longer makes Dura Prep 502. The OEM glue wasn't too bad to remove but the glue on the aftermarket vinyl is difficult. I've been using an old metal putty knife, with rounded corners to scrape off vinyl and glue. With a little care it's works great, with no damage.
