Another Door Molding Remover

[SSmurdered]

yup i did it too. dont know why i waited so long to do it??? smooth as eggs! buffed and waxed the whip too, like glass once again!!

 

[Narco]

yep. now when i see one that has it i wanna go rip it off for them. looks so much better.

 

[ecordell]

looks good man!

 

[coopiesb]

looks sooo much better without them

 

[Travieso]

Nice !!!! told you just like cake...

 

[nytahoe]

looks good rly cleans up the out side

 

[Huck]

If I just pull the off it won't leave any scratches?

 

[Narco]

no. you might have small scratches from dirt and stuff getting between the paint and molding and rubbing over time but you wont have scratches from just removing them. do it, youll be glad you did.

 

[vatahoelt]

on some colors i agree it looks better, but the darker colors look good with them on too.

 

[Narco]

i have black. everything on the tahoe is gloss black except those stupid moldings where its dimpled black plastic. they had to go.

 

[Huck]

Just pulled mine off. Took the roof rack off, too. Might put the roof rack back on, though. Have to figure out how to make it look cleaner than just having the bolts up there.

Just did mine today

A very nice 50 degree day here in the North East so I decided to debadge and Detrim my Hoe.

Took all the fender flares, badges, mud flaps and wind deflectors off.

Now have to remove all the 3M adhesive strips and give it a good wash and polish.

Also took off the cross bars off the roof rack and replaced the 24's with the stock wheels for winter.

Car looks very ordinary now so cant wait for Spring to start the trucks transformation.

looks very nice! i have been struggling with doing this mod for the past year. im afraid the paint wont match or if i pull the mouldings off, im afraid that some of the paint will come with them.

Dont worry at all. The flares were on tight on mine and I really had to pull to get them off their adhesive strips. I too thought the paint would come off with it but it's all good. I have to agree with everyone that although it looks weird at first, it def looks better and cleaner.
It was quite dirty inder the flares but once washed you couldnt event tell they were there for so long. I just have to get a few pieces of adhesive off

+1! My tahoe had 110,000 miles on it when I took them off, and there was no problem, just wash and wax.

 

[Narco]

im jealous of you guys. i had a deep scratch outline where my flares were.

^^^...thats what im afraid of. mine is 2002 with 160,000 miles, o and did i mention that its white

 

[Narco]

white will hide it better than black which is what i have =) even with the scratch it still looks better!

 

[whitetahoe]

Alright, u guys twisted my arm! I'm gonna take a heat gun to mine by the end of the week.
