I'd stay away from Goof-Off and instead use 3M-Adhesive remover. It's what Griots Garage in Tacoma sells and recommends because it won't damage paint or clearcoat.

more rare doesn't always mean more valuable.
If you decide to leave stock, then get the IROC.
If you want to swap engines, then get the RS.
