I just recently removed mine. I used this stuff called Goof Off, you can get it at Walmart in the paint area. It is not a hard thing to do, you just have to have patience as it takes a long time to remove all the glue. I spent a total of about 3-4 hours on the process. Hope this helps, and this is a worthwhile thing to do to your car.

Well worth it. Used heat gun and stuff like goo gone, but better - orange stuff at Walmart near the bug spray. It comes in a windex-looking bottle...

<<What did you guys use to take it off? Just your fingers?>>
yeah, pretty much... but it can be a pain in ***... after a while, i used a terry's towel wrapping around the finger and go from there.... if you want to do something like this, be prepare and have a few hours to do this mod. this is the far cheap mod i ever done.

I used a terry towel soaked in goof off to make it soft and easy to take off. Then slowly but surely peel it off. It will be very sticky though.

i peeled a small section off of the side molding and using a standard white terry cloth soaked in water and "oops" to get the sticky stuff off and i noticed tiny tiny scratches in the paint, anyone else get scratches? i don't want to continue if i'm gonna have a line down each side of the car with little scratches...........
