First obviously, remove the sticker.

Then ......... Bug and Tar Remover might work. Otherwise, you can try one of the various less toxic adhesive removers out there like 'Oops'. Something like 'Goof Off' would be a last resort since it's pretty strong stuff and might damamge your clear coat.

Eucalyptus oil is the best stuff to remove stickers.

rubbing alcahol works too, but probably not the best way to remove BIG stickers. I used it to take off the alarm stickers.
