Anyone know how to remove this???
Do you guy's know how to remove this piece that im pointing at in the pic bellow????
Here's anotha pic, if you arent sure what im talking about....
I tried to remove it about a week or 2 ago, and i just couldnt get the damn thing to come off. It's faded and i got some OEM Black Trim Paint from Advanced Auto Part's, and im just trying to bring back the color and help out the appearance of the car with small lil thing's like this.

Looks like you just need to remove the plastic trims pop screws. I see one of them in the picture. You'll need a special trim panel tool that's made of plastic so it won't damage anything.

No need to remove that.
Want it to look new? First, wash it down with some soap to remove loose dirt. Then, you need two products:
- Meguiar's Quik Interior Detailer (to deep clean, scrub real good with this)
- 303 Aerospace Protectant (to restore full luster and protect)
If you don't want to spend the money for/can't find the 303 stuff, Mother's makes a product called "Back to Black" that works well in this area too.

No need to remove as others have said. There are tons of products out there made for this purpose. Take some time and clean it up well and then shine it up with some of the above products.

a battery terminal top post puller works great to pull the wiper arms off.
back to black works for a while but the polishing compound i used with the 7" polisher has made it a temporary fix. how do you clean that off that textured plastic?
anyone thinking of taking a power polisher to thier car should consider masking that off.

But I've found that nothing works better to restore like-new appearance to interior/exterior plastic that the Megs QID + 303 process.
