Yep, my right thumb was blue and purple for about 2 days after I did mine

Looks much better.

Gluemaker, you basically just rip them off, then start peeling the glue off.

Looks very clean on the camaro. I for some reason like it on the TA, im leaving mine on, seems to give it more lines and edgier look. Looks very clean on the camaro however! good job!

nah man when you rip the molding off, generally all the 3m tape holding it on is still stuck to the car, so then you proceed to slowly roll it off with your thumbs or fingers, thats why you always see ppl saying that thier thumbs hurt like hell afterward
