Most body shops have a tool that's essentially a powered pencil eraser. It's designed to remove stickers without damaging paint. I'm sure it's dependent on the operator skill.

I removed mine with a heat gun and it looked like it was coming off without a hitch, but once off it looked like scrotum. The big eraser that McMark spoke of is great at removing but forget about the piece it removes. It gets erased.
