Hi guys and gals,

Today is a sad day for me. When I get home from work, I have to remove the beautiful Maryland bay plates from my baby, and replace them with craptastic DC "No Taxation Without Representation" plates. -Sigh- It's official, I've moved.

My question is, (I have no plans to wash and wax the car today), are there any special considerations that I need to take into account when swapping the plates so as not to damage the paintwork in the process? Once the MD plates are off, should I QD the paint underneath before putting the new ones on? Leave it as is? I'd appreciate some advice.

Thanks.
