Exclamation URGENT: Got egged..

So I Left the movies last night around 1ish in the AM and drove home, slept, got up around and I'm ready to leave for work at about 12:00 pm and I notice egg on my damn car. So it looked like I got hit in the front lower grill, trunk, and I think that was it. I brought it to a car wash before work and it got some off but some of it was gummy and I was hoping that cause it was cold out...(wishful thinkin) but the lower grill is still a huge mess!

What is the best way and best stuff to use to get it off???

I hope the cold works in your favor. My wife's CR-V got egged last year and we ended up having to get the door repainted. It was on there for about 12 hours in our case, but it was also during warmer weather.

^^^^ Just a quick note - I used to use simple green on the inside fender wells on the balt and it stripped the paint off of the ends of the rear lip and the end of my side skirts - I would be easy with the Simple green spray-

This being said I always used it on my 4runner inner fenderwells and on my buddys 300Z so who knows -
