yes, do it. the lettering on the 08 looks bad. bige spaced out lettters.
use a putty knife with masking tape on it and soap and water, just stick to it
this is the safer way.

<-- CLICK IT!!Hairdryer, or a heatgun on low....warm it up, then use some dental floss to cut the adhesive, then use goo-gone and some kind of cleaner wax.
