Bump strips.

[Littlewood]

Firstly, sorry about the crappy photoshopping, couldn't be arsed to do it well!

But..

Cant decide which would look best, doby coloured bump srips or totaly removed?

Also, when you remove them and they attached by pins of just stuck?

Cheers,

Littlewood.

They look better removed, and yeah, they're held on with a really tough glue. Getting them off the car isn't so hard, but getting the clue off the car is a nightmare. I wrecked both my doors in frustration!

It's a good 'How to' but pictures say a thousand words

I have those Plastic strips on the red K10 and i'd like to remove them on the grounds of discourageing Rust, but my biggest worry is will the paint be different underneath? The answer of course is yes it will be because it's been covered up all those years.

How would i get the Paint looking the same?

Maybe by polishing???

using a polishing mop on my k11 got the glue off instantly but normal polish would take hours to do one section.
