Body Shop Prep Solvent (won't harm paint) will make the adhesive so it can be scraped off in one pass, if you let it soak.

I just started this one last night. I have one side done, will do the other tonight after the sun goes down. So far I am really liking the look of it without that trim.

Use a hot air gun, or even a hair dryer to heat up the plastic and bring it back to black.

I used Herculiner, scruff it up with sandpaper, wash and rub with alcohol and roll on. I took them off but it's not very fun putting them back on
