Bump Strip Removal?
People often remove the strips and full them but I think the majority weld making it a pricy time consuming job for small return
Re: Bump Strip Removal?
Yea i was thinking that too, And do you know if you gotta break em off? Or can you just put them back on (Clips or something) after spraying?

They're all self adhesive and once off the adhesive is a pain to adhere again. Could use some sort of silicone for it to re glue.

no they arnt clips there just to line it back up properly,SolidZeus wrote:Yea i was thinking that too, And do you know if you gotta break em off? Or can you just put them back on (Clips or something) after spraying?
and if you take them off youll need to get all the adhesive foam of and put new tape on,
there easy to get off just slide a credit card behind them with some wd40 and work them off
