patgizz Posted December 9, 2003 Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 how do i remove the black and red body side molding from my doors and fenders without ruining the paint? heat lamp? when i took the emblems off the trunk they just kinda peeled off in a warm day and wiped the glue off with goof off. but the body moldings seem on there REALLY good. i know when i did my truck the paint came off with some, but it was in considerably worse condition.

GRANDFURY Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 On my 89' GP the trim on the doors has a bunch of clips on it. I know this 'cause some fag hit me awhile back and the side moldings are coming off and it looks like a bunch of white clips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 on the luminas it is adhesive, be very careful, i did mine when i knew it was going in for paint so i hacked them off, but it was still hard as hell. I'd wait till the middle of the summer and wait until you have a full day to do it so u can take your time and use some cleaner to take off the adhesive. Fishing line is too weak and it hurts your hands, i even tried it with a few pegs to wrap it around. Just get a putty knife wrapped in a cloth of some type and get a edge up and then continue on from there. What are you going to do about the molding in the bumper covers? It'll look all wierd, OH BTW it'll have a nice tinny sound to the door after you remove that strip, i am going to dynamat my doors in the spring because of it. Just a word of wisdom, WAIT TILL IT"S HOT AS SHIT OUT so u don't jack your paint. Later Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
