Default Removing decal from mirrors

Awhile back I bought a pair of Spoon style mirrors. I ordered black and they sent me a pair with a carbon fiber decal on it. They looked alright so whatever. Well now the decal is pealing and looks like shit. Anyone have any idea on how to get it off completely? I tried a hair dryer but it doesn't seem to be working. Any other ideas?

Its just a big sticker?

Hair dryer should have done the trick.. Powerwasher perhaps? Bolt 'em to the car, take it to the carwash, and try to blast it off..
