i was wondering if someone can help me with a link on removal of side molding trim along with the front and bumper trim. i know there's one for painting the trim, but is there an easier way of taking them off than trying to pop them off. cause i really like to re-paint them or get one off the jy. id really appreciate it

i think you would be better off painting them while on the car, moldings tend to warp when removed from vehicle
....good luck

Their not easy to get off, but not hard either. I took mine off when I painted my car, just take your time and DONT bend them.
1 10mm nut on the latch side of the front doors, remove the interior door panels and you will see several white clips holding it on, pop those clips out, and even then it is double sided taped on.
As I said just be gental and dont bend them too much.

what about the trim in front of the doors?
and can you even take the trim off the bumper? lol that'd look so wierd.. >.>Comment

No the bumper trim doesn't come off.
For the trims in front of the front doors, you can access the clips by taking the inner wheel liner off

I need that 2" piece in front of the door drivers side. a black one. any body got an extra? I dont have clips or whatevers. if you look closely at the bumpers, you can see the seperation between colors. my 'trim" is black, but the bumper is molded green

its up to u if you think same color looks good, do it. if you like contrasting color that. i prefer contrast.

yes bending them will make them have a warp look to it. Take your time and do it right! dont rush! do it right the first time.

go to your local paint store, they will have black trim paint. make sure you mask the area off before painting three coats will be plenty for all the trim. Leaves a great looking new look.

this thread is all over the place. Are you asking about the bumper moldings? If so you can't take them off. If you're talking about the door side moldings then yeah. And evil demon described the best way to take them off.Bichote
