Its bonded on to the plastic, so may never come off without damage to the underlying bumper surface. It may take a ***** of the bumper with it or at least maybe remove paint, depends how strong bonder was. You could try the same methos used to remove the Subaru letters and badges on the tailgate, people have different methods, but liberal boiling water from a kettle and some lever action with gentle persuasion may be enough to loosen the bonding agent, or try heating with a hot air gun to melt glue underneath. Either way may think you will ruin the damage the bumper of you try

..GOOD LUCK

You are referring to the EastSussexScoobies 555 Wagon Squadron, to give it its full title. If you go onto 'www.eastsussexscoobies.co.uk' and follow the 555 link there are a couple of stories which will give you an idea of what we are about. The Squadron evolved through a need for Wagon owners to park neatly in formation, and people used to gather round to watch the action, even though it was often quite sad. All this evolved into Red Arrows formations eg diamond nine, and things rapidly evolved from there. The military precision applied to all of our "stunts" led to us becoming a Squadron.

Believe me, you have to be utterly mad, able to absorb ridicule, and have a fertile imagination - it's certainly not for everybody!!!

Oh, and we all have nicknames!

I might not have made it clear, sorry - Synchro parking is how it all started. We do lots of other things, like drive around airfields at high speed and stuff. Say hello if you meet us at a show.

Take a look at the fun we had at the latest Squadron Mission where we got to have some fun at Dunsford Aifield, home to the Top Gear Circuit and Stiggy San

My Blue Wagon's turned up, apparently completely unharmed, but I'm supposed to be keeping it quiet.

Unfortunately, I'm so ecstatic, I can't help myself.

They better not try to do it again!!

I think one of the worst things about the car theft os the fact they came into your house, must be an awful feeling, thankfully you're all OK

Welcome back to Scooby ownership

Slight kerbing on the driver's side front wheel. Otherwise, all my stuff was intact. W*rk shirt, fleece, flask (half full of mouldy coffee) child's booster seat, Disclock.

Unbelieveable.
