I was wondering how easy it is to remove the side bump strips without damaging my paint. I want to take them off so i can paint them. How are they held on and how easy would they be to remove/put back on?

 

They are held on with more or less very good two sided tape, you can just peel them off. You will need a special compound wheel made by 3M for your drill. It is about 4 inch in diameter and it is like a big white eraser for your drill. It clings to the sticky tape and at the same time it eats the eraser away too so you may need to buy a couple depending on how much work you need to do. It wont hurt your paint just watch out for the drill head.

 

Can i just rip them off by hand? and not worry bout the drill? I am going to put them back on anways.

 

i would recommend heating them up and prying it up slowly with a heat gun, that will soften the tape

 

and what would u do to re apply them? what kind of adhesive?

 

Very good 3M double sided tape made for automotive stripping.

 

yep, scrape off all the old adhesive, and apply an automotive grade 3m double face tape

 

Thanks
