I have de-spoilered my 5 and I'm happy with the new looks. However there is some remaining silicone sealant left over bit and I'm thinking what would be best to help me get rid of it, without stripping away paint too obviously. Any suggestions?

You can buy silicon sealant remover from hardware or maybe auto shops otherwise ring a panel beater & see what they say.
