Yeah a heat gun helps but doesnt the bubbles can still be there. The bubbles are from a factory defect, not from the way you remove them. | |

| That is correct joey... its the fact that they painted and put the moldings on before they dried... i removed mine using a heat gun... another reason for having the bubbles is due to water getting under them and never fully drying kinda does to paint what soaking in a tub does to your skin... | |

| Did mine no problems at all. There was a slight color difference right after pulling it just cleaned and waxed the doors and its no longer there. Easiest way to pull them is pick a nice HOT day and do it evenly and slowly, the heat will lsten up the bonding strip. Less than a half hour job. | |

| Use the heat outside + the heat gun and fishing line if you do it this way you shouldn't fuck up the moldings and you can put them back on if needed. Don't be a jack off and bend the shit outta them and you should be okay. you can always go to auto zone and get you some chrome moldings to make it pop if all else fails lol | |
