hi baynesey

yes easy to do took mine off my vts after it started to crease. using a heat gun makes it a bit better when removing them just watch not to bubble your paint work and t cuts good for the underneath to get the glue off.

mine took about 1 hour each side to get a perfect finish smileys/smiley17.gif

Ah thats some really good info! Was wondering that myself.
On my 106 i got them horrible plasticy covers each side, is it the proper bodywork underneath? Doesnt need repraying once you have taken them off?

no dusnt need respraying, shud be the same colour as ur car, i did mine not long ago. just try it tho, peel a corner back slightly so you can see the colour.

Cant wait until next week now, last uni exam this friday, work over the weekend. Then i can finally go over the car cleaning and tidying all the lil bits, this is another thing to add to the list, thanks again!

right all done, but now theres a line of paint, like an extra layer, then what was under the black stuff.

how can i get rid of this??

Well if you have a line of paint it sounds like your door has been painted before, and instead of renewing the pillar trim they have just masked it up. ypu could try to flat and polish the edge. but dont burn through the paint>>>> smileys/smiley16.gif
