Hello everyone... I have a quick question. I was wondering how hard it is to remove the molding on the side of the 300 looks like mine has a couple of spots where it's starting to lift off. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Zak

So easy a caveman can do it!!! Just spray some goo-gone on it, warm the molding with a hair dryer and get you some fishing line and saw through the tape behind it. I even let my 15 year old son take mine off for me. Readers' Digest version.

Thanks for the help Paul, here are a couple or pics please forgive me for the horrible cell phone pics. The driver side went pretty well but the passenger side did fair as well. I have some surface scratches on the passenger door I need to address but it's supposed to rain for the next week in WA...

Sorry for the super slow response, it took about a hour and a half to finish. But I was to enthusastic on the passenger door and left it with quite a few scratches so I need to do some buffing to see if I can remove them. But the weather hasn't been the greatest and I have been distracted by boring life stuff.

That looks good. I hope the scratches come out easily.
