I found this tip on the Miata.net forum and I thought it would be helpful for you guys. I notice that when I got my new MSP there were 2 warning stickers PAINTED on the visors. They were on my Miata too. The way to get rid of them is to take a sheet of papertowel and fold it to the size of this sticker. Then soak the papertowel with Goof Off or paint thiner. Let it sit on there for about a half an hour. Make sure you have good ventilation because it will stink up the garage or your house. Outside is the best place to do this. After the 30 mins are up then rub off the excess paint. You may need to get another papertowel and use some more Goof Off but most of it will come off.
The visor will be all wrinkly.....DON"T WORRY. Take a hair dryer to it and blow it dry. It will go back into shape. Viola....you are done.
I hope this helps.

you guys can be such assbites at times. i would never call this "modding"; nor would i call it wasting time. i hate those fucking labels and wanted it off.
dimitrios- is it "really that important" for you to spend time dogging a post?

I have two spare visors at home. I will try this on at least one of them whenever I get a chance.
My current visors are dyed black along with the rest of the headliner.

Someone on here did his own sticker overlay. It shows some chick giving a dude a BJ with some pretty funny warning text? Anyone one know who this is?

I'd love to repace it with something like what they used in Fight Club on the airplanes. Warning lables showing people dying.

i just hope my mom or other family members dont ever put the visor down :eek:

Thread revival...
Is there a better way of doing this than using the Goo-Gone technique in post#1?
