You could try using a hair dryer to heat a section at a time, and then try pulling the tape at a right angle so it doesn't tear. If you take your time it should come right off.

Good luck

You're lucky it's vinyl and not painted on I'd start with a hair dryer
then GooGone (remove the glue/stickey) then clay and then several coats of
high quality wax. I don't understand why anyone takes a 21 century car
and adds 70 dees crap to it....guess it's a matter of taste!
