I dont have any stickers on mine because they fade and get scratched up then look like crap. Any stickers that dont peel off easy I blast off with a pressure washer.

I used a hair dryer and some lighter fluid for the sticky stuff. (To take off the stickers)

They are basically the ones that are riveted in, how do you get those off, I know that there will be holes from the rivets but is there anyway to cover the wholes up?

Drill the rivets out. Then shave off the fenders. That should get rid of the holes. LOL

seriously, I'm not sure how you'd get ride of the holes.

i drilled out the rivets. just left the ' no riders" and 'tire pressure' plates on. I ignore the holes, they are tiny. or get a sheet of stickers and cover the holes that way. some guys cut a plate to fit the hole and then paint the plate. just glue it in place.

you guys in the usa have it easy, up here in canada we get one set of stickers in english (warning stickers) and one complete set in french,so when you get your new atv it is covered in stickers.

I drilled the rivets out and applied some carbon fiber look vinyl to the plates and riveted them back on. Looks good IMOP.
