it depends on the condition of your paint whether or not it will look faded, CGP (dark green) is a better color than say red for fading so you might be okay but it's hard to say without trying a small section.

Sometimes it helps to heat up pinstripe, with a hairdyer or something. otherwise just very crefully peel with an exacto knife then goo gone the residue.

Try not to use an actual razor on it. If you need to use something, see if plastic razor blades help.

And of course a hair dryer (or heat gun) and Goo Gone.

You can get 'em anywhere. But I suggest getting oem cause of wiring stuff. I haven't done it but I will, and I've heard that putting those in stck fenders isn't great cause it may cause rust? idk. anyone know anything about that? cause the alternative would be to buy new fenders and that's prolly pretty spendy.

You just need to properly protect the bare metal.

when you cut/drill the hole for the marker, just make sure you put a little touchup paint on the cut surface to keep it from rusting, and make sure theres a little bit of rubber between the marker and metal to help keep some of the water out.
