!Side molding

Hey guys, I was wondering what you used to take the side pieces (not badges) off of your trans ams without damaging the paint at all.

Thanks for the info!

I think there the same as the Camaro's, I was at work one day and was wondering what it would look like and I just peeled them right off. Took about 3 minutes to do both sides.

Wow! Not all of them come off quite so easy.

I heated them up with a hair dryer, then used fishing line (dental floss works also) to seperate them from the door. I delicately peeled the big pieces of adhesive that was left on the door off with my fingers, then used Goo-Gone and a rag to remove the rest. It takes some elbow grease but its not that hard. Afterwards, wash & wax.
