Removing Pinstripe from 2011 LX 570

Hi guys.
I am new to the forum. I have had landcruisers forever but just recently added a 2011 570 to the fold. White with tan interior. Super excited!

Anyone here have a technique for removing the pinstripe from a 2011 570?

I have a 2000 GMC Safari van I've have had for 16 years.(our people mover) I've always taking real good care of it but the only thing that aged it was the faded pin striping. I watched all the videos and check out the different tools. Then one day I decided to just pick at it with the edge of a credit card. Once I got it started it just pull right off. Had to laugh I put up with it for so long and the time I wasted researching how to remove it.
May be worth a try....
