Better than having your dealer engrave their name on your glass. (not that I've seen or heard of it)

Then I would have them replace the glass.

It's your car. Tell the dealer to remove it.

300 miles or not to dealership.

This is exactly how mine looks

Different dealership, of course...

I believe cars at the dealer already come with the licensce plate wholes drilled. ( for the most part) Because it is illegal in California to not have a front plate

Although the stingray emblem is looking a little whats the word... unsuitable. I believe it is the name of the dealer in which you made purchase..? If that is the case propose them to pay you for rolling advertisement... haha

Looks like its time to grab a debit card and 3m adhesive remover.
Good luck!

I used waxed dental floss in a sawing motion. Then used Goo Gone with no after effect. Not sure why someone said not to use it....it worked for me.

The front plate holder comes from the factory in the car, not mounted, no matter what state the car is shipped to.
The dealer drills the holes and mounts it during the prep.

GOO GONE and it will be gone !!

Sounds like the dealer put the sticker on before it was sold. And the OP bought it as-is. I would at least call them up and tell them that this practice says to other potential buyers to not by a car from this dealer because they are too dumb to realize that the car owner/enthusiast buying these kinds of cars absolutely would not want such a dumb sticker placed on such a fine car.

you can get plastic razor blades for a few bucks at most Napas they do wonders

i would tell them to take it off before signed the papers.
