Im looking to colour code my bump strips. I've been reading through previous posts and have read that the doors strips are clipped on, is this the same for the bumpers. Also coding door handles and mirrors caps any tips and advice on removal would be great.

Thanx for the reply both, Im looking to remove all trims before painting to save labour costs etc. Can anyone else confirm they are definately clipped on, before I start yanking them off.

Just color coded my car last week.....and please note....
The door strips are not clipped on.....they are stuck on with sticky tape.....
I phoned my local stealers and they said their were no clips manufactured for the door trims.....
Also the bumper trims just snap off and snap on....but be gentle.....

Well I was confused at first when I was removing the strips....
It could be different on the primmed ones.......as I was speaking to the parts fella and he said there was nothing specified on the comp!!!
