    You can remove that piece and wetsand around 600-800 grit to remove the bird, then go up to about 2000 grit, then buff
    Should get it out

    That's a tough one, especially since it's plastic.
    I would have to agree that wetsanding would be a better viable option. Don't use any harsg solvent or thing like that since it will destroy the plastic.
    Wetsanding and then buffing will bring it up to par

    I would start with 1000 grit first and see how that works. You can always go down to 800 grit if needed

    i used one of those big erasers to get the yellow decals off my '72 SS, worked like a charm and cleaned up real easy but be gentle when doing it
