Well seeing as no ones posted in here yet A tip for those lower black door and rear 1/4 panel trims, you know.. the ones that bubble up with rust behind the rubber and look naff..
The door ones are easy enough to change, just grab the rear end of each door one and pull them off the car towards the back. BUT.... the tiny little one on the rear wheel arch... that puppy is a mare... there is one slide on metal clip in the rear arch you pull off first, then you think the molding will simply pull off... WRONG!!! it is stuck on with Mr Muscle permanent grip, ain't never letting go beyond super glue adhesive!!
That baby is there for good!! pliers, heat, trim pulling tools, pneumatic drills and an F16 on full after burn re-heat couldn't get it to let go! What a mare.... You can only break it off in small pieces until you get it all off the car!
