Body Trims

Post by Bekki_B »

Hey

I'm thinking about taking my trims off the side of my doors.... does anyone know how they are fixed to the car? And will it leave a mark if I take them off?

Thanks for that.

How do you go about colour coding your handles then? I definately want to take the trims off.

How does everybody else feel about this?

take the trim off. its not hard. use a hair dryer and peel off slowley. it will most definetly have a colour fade..slightly. but have no fear! the solution. t-cut :) workes everytime :)

..just make sure you leave the hair dryer on long enough to melt the glue. dont peel the paint off with it lol! there may be some glue left on. but you can easilly get that off with a bit of soap and water afterwards :)
