Default RE: wings west body kit

i am currently in the process of buying a newer camaro for a good price, but the one i am looking is a 1999 camaro ss m6 but it has a wings west body kit. it includes the front lip side skirts and rear spolier, i was wondering if it can easily be removed cause i am not a fan of body kits on muscle cars. and if it can be removed will it leave any holes in the body or paint blemishes? and would anyone be interested in a wings west body kit?

not sure if the ww kit used just 3m tape or some screws also. but if the car is good priced, sell the ww kit, and then use that to fix any damage to the car

If it's a WW all the way around it's just stuck on with 3M tape. If it was installed right it should not leave any scratches behind. Your going to go through hell removing the adhesive that's left behind. You'll have to use a professional paint cleaner like 3M.

BTW: looks like the rear peice is missing.
