    Hey guys, im just wondering how to remove the door black trims that go across the car. I took a small one off the door, there than is double sided tape.. which is easy to get off with grease+wax remover but than there is rubber/silocen stuck to the car which I am finding hard to get off.

    Example picture: http://images.carsales.com.au/private/1532067.jpg (on the door, the black side skirt things)

    If its the same stuff that my badges where stuck on with i found that a hair dryer did the trick....

    I had some left over glue n crap on the panels after i de-badged my car and i just heated it up and rolled it off with my finger..

    Mind you i burnt myself a few times...

    Good luck with it
