So you guys didn't need to use fishing line? I honestly don't like the idea of using that and thought about just pulling the things off with the help of the hair dryer.

You're over-thinking this

I did this a few weeks ago to my '02:



I just used my wife's hairdryer and pulled. That's it. The leftover adhesive I just peeled off by kind of "rubbing it" over itself (kind of like "rolling" it up). The get any other funk off, I just used a clay bar.

Doing mine tonight.

Simplejack, I agree with some others that you're over-thinking it. You'd have to be a real idiot to screw it up.

I'm just worried about what the shop put behind the molding, hopefully not super glue instead of adhesive lol. Doing it this coming thursday anways, so will keep you guys posted.

Yeah, I guess not knowing what they used would be kind of scarry. Good luck. I'm sure it will turn out fine.

The factory tape has a bit of elasticity to it and you can peel it off. The 3m tape does not stretch or peel.

I used WD-40 and fish line on a warm day. Can't even tell the molding was there. Just spray WD-40 on the molding where the glue is as best as you can then slowly run fish line down it. Should peel right off. Then just use WD-40 for the rest of the glue that could possibly be left on your car.
