Its not much, been done a million times before, but its my first...
I had the car for just over 24 hours and it was just killing me seeing those damn side moldings! hehe I'm not any more worried about door dings w/o them than I was with them. My extended warranty covers paint dent repair (on all vertical surfaces). Not that I'll be parking close to ANYONE, but if it happens, I'm covered.
And since no post is complete w/o pics...
Before
My chosen method of extraction (only to get it started). I wrapped a microfiber towel over the hammer and used gentle pressure to start prying the end upwards. I sprayed the top of the moldings w/ WD40 for about 2 minutes and it made a world of difference! Absolutely NO glue and/or residue was left behind. I guess doing this to a new car makes a difference.
Halfway done. I contemplated being different than everyone else and leaving it just like this. hehe
And a few pics after I was done. I'll post some daylight pics later today. Sorry these are kinda dark. I didn't do the trunk badge yet. I will take it off when I take off the rear wing and have the holes filled/painted. I am leaving the 300C badge on the front for now. I can always change my mind later.
So there ya go folks. Enjoy.
ps - looks like I need to clean my camera.
