Pretty simple really. Did it on my LX. Just haul the side moldings off and use some automotive glue remover to remove any glue left behind. Then just wax where they were so it doesn't look odd with a dull line going across your door panels.

And that's it.

Lol. I neglected to mention that there are no bolts or clips, nor any holes whatsoever. Only glue holds them on.

hey guys, i revomed that small piece thats in the very front of the car. Like just in front of the drivers side door but behind the right front wheel well. And it looks ok, but just before i was about to remove the rest of the moldings i was wondering if anyone knows if this would void the warrenty? does anyone know if it will?

P5 side molding removal

I have the same sideskirts on my 3rd Gen Pro and all you have to do to remove them is undo the 2 plugs that sit behind the front wheels. (visible) Then carefully pull the rest of the sidesirt off, They are just held on by plastic plugs that snap into holes that are drilled about every 8 inches down the side, Careful tho becuse there are some that are under the car.also.

Hope this helps you out.
