Trim on the door of the car....
Trim on the door of the car....
I want to take of the trim/molding that is on the outside of all four doors. Has anyone done this. Is it hard?? If I attempt to take it off, will any paint peel off with it?? I am guessing it is jus tliek the trunk letters, but I am not sure so I want to ask before i do it.
Thank you in advance, Tom

Re: Trim on the door of the car....
There are holes under there. You remove the molding, the holes are exposed. Body shop has to fill them. It's a $600-$800 job. They have to fill and repaint all 4 doors. I had it done when I repainted my car. Not something you can do at home.

MaxiPad96 Its very easy just peel it off.. I did it in about 5 minutes.. you need some mineral spirits to get the glue off though.. be sure to wash it off then put wax on it immediatly.

Maybe he misread what you were saying and thought you were talking about your trunk. I pulled the trim once myself thinking there were no holes, but there are.
