well if its been there since 96 id almost be tempted to leave it, but get a hot air gun or just use a hair blowdryer warm it up then peel it from one of the corners slowly, dont get it too hot but nice and warm, you should be able to tell its easy. once its off use some 'paint cleaner' to polish it, to get any gunk off, also you might want to polish the area around to blend it since your car is red and we all know how red fades. paint cleaner is awesome on old or oxidised paint.
