the only way to remove them is, to weld metal strips in place, then fiberglass over them. if you just fill them they will crack.

purpose, fender/roof seam & rain gutter.
to remove the black part just pull up on it, it snaps in and out.
to fill it, weld in metal, filler, sand smooth, wetsand, pait.

yah, pretty much what everyone has all ready said.

Do you pull straight up or toward the front? Start with the front or back? Need to remove mine before getting paint

I usually start from the rear and move forward, pull straight up... you may have to wiggle it a little to get them to pop off.
