Well my truck has gray pinstripe and a chrome looking 2inch trim that is on fenders doors and bed. Think these pieces are stuck on with double sided tape. Pretty sure I can jus pull em off. Just not shure what kinda mess lies benieth.
Wife don't want me to take em off. She says it makes truck look old. I like the original look with trim. But also like em smooth. 3m wheel can be found in pep boys? |

your going to have to post a pic of the trim...it maybe a stock clip on piece...
look for the wheel anywhere that sells paint supplies or any 3m supplier |

Both come off real easy if you are planning on painting it afterwards. What is your goal?

I did mine a couple of weeks ago, (they were like that, but in worse shape), and the 3/M wheel work well and as advertised, but there is still a bit of clear film left behind, that the 3/m adhesive remover (chemical) wont remove. This weekend, I'm going to try the heat gun (on low), and plastic razor blades....:chevy:
