Remove visor labels

I tried to move the sun visor warning labels on my CLS 63 (like I have on my other BMW's) but I'm stuck. I peeled off the first layer easily, but how do i Safely remove the labels from the alcantra headliner?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Once the outer skin is removed the printing and the color will still remain. I have removed the decals on an E55, SL55 and a S550 all with the alcantra material. I used Goof Off and paper towels. Apply a liberal amount of the GO to a towel and rub gently on the residue. You may need to do this several times and be sure to change the towel to a clean one. Keep rubbing and the decal will vanish. I have done it on light grey and dark grey. Once the GO dries there will not be anything noticeable

mine came off the alcantara nicely. just use a hairdryer to heat it up and slowly peel it off. cant even tell there were decals there in the first place.
