Wow, that looks great! We just bought a 2012 Springdale with some gosh awful border. It looks like it belongs in a 1970's Motel 6. I can't wait to get the blow dryer out and get it removed.

I tried heating my border to get it off . There is a lot is sticky residue left on the wall,so I panicked and stuck it back down.
How long did you have to hold the hair dryer on the paper ?
My camper is a 2002 so the border has been on a bit !!
Any other suggestions on how to get it off

Not very long at all. Maybe a min or two at first and then slowly peeled as I applied the heat. I just moved down the wall and pulled while using the blow dryer, didn't stop really, just kept moving slow. Maybe they didn't use a lot of adhesive on mine. I cleaned the wall after with a mild mix of powdered TSP and water. Came out clean and no sticky film!

This is going to be our next mod. We've already made seat covers for the dinette and pillow covers for sofa. We also added a slipcover over the bottom half of the sofa. We replaced the cheap looking bathroom faucet with one that matches the accessories in the trailer and looks nice now.

In looking at others' mod's, my list is growing. DH will like that

I used some small dollops of Liquid Nails in the back and used my brad nailer every 2 feet or so to hold it in place while the adhesive set up. I covered the tiny nail head holes with one of those stain sticks that looks like a crayon or colored pencil. It took less time than it sounds.
