Looking to remove airbag visor warning

Wondering if anyone in the community has been succesful in removing those screaming yellow decals. I have the alcantara visors and certainly don't want to ruin them.

I have heard others ordering vinyl decals to stick on top of the yellow warnings. Pretty sure you’ll have a very difficult time peeling off the warnings.

I wouldn't mess with them. I have never read a post where everything turns out well.

Since the visors are alcantara I won't try to remove them, I'll see if I can find something to cover them with a similar color and material instead.

Maybe try a piece of 3M wrap. Endless color options and easy to remove if you don't like it.

The whole interior visors and roof are alcantara so I don't want to mess up that look, just covering the decal itself.

That's what I meant - cover just the stickers. 3M and other companies have a nice variety of vinyl film colors, which are typically fairly easy to remove if you don't like it. There's a red carbon color that might look cool on an infrared car (or not).

Carbon Fiber Cover

I purchased a carbon fiber cover for my C7 Corvette. Found the material on ebay.

Do Not under any circumstances peel the stickers off. This will stretch the material and devalue the car. The funny thing is that the brain becomes used to seeing it and it magically disappears. So just be patient and you won’t be jarred by the stickers like you are now,
