Then it was time to remove the chrome piece which was held on with 9 easily removable screws and one not so easily removable screw... surprise! Nothing my trusty 4" angle grinder couldn't persuade. After the screws were removed I learned that this piece is glued on using what appears to be some sort of a double sided sticky strip... out with the spatula. I also taped the rain gutter with blue tape to prevent it from getting scratched as I worked my way around the roof line to pry it off.
I had the same problem getting the "double sided sticky strip" off in one piece. Now I have been searchin for a new one, but without success.
Does anybody know from where I could order a new one?? The weatherstripping pages in a few catalogues (MU, NPD) does not have the answer....
You will have the same issue, gregski. Great job with your car by the way!
