The sides should be ok to get off, should just pull off. But just make sure the car hasn't been resprayed

For the front and the back, I think the strips are held on with clips, but either way, you'll be left with the recess that the strips sit in so would need some bodywork

yea the side will be same as the 6n then i guess? just a bit of heat and off they come.

the front and rear will need filler..shaping then respraying then?

thanks for the info Smile

Yeah the sides should just be stuck on and will come off with a bit of heat

And the front and back will need filling etc like you said
