Removing the Moldings
Ok so I got the moldings off and I was able to remove all the 2 sided tape and crap.
But what is left is a black stripe in the middle that looks like black glue.......
Any Ideas on how to remove this and or what it is????
Thanks
Jay

Ok UPDATE.......
After trying about a million different products, (Lift Off, Goof Off, Goo Gone, Acetone, Sweat and Tears) I found that the best product was Lift Off...
I used a Dobie (its a kitchen dish scrubbie thing) and the lift off.
I started just using elbow grease but that soon wore out my elbow. So being the rocket scientist that I am I grabbed my electric drill and using a velcro buffing pad I stuck the Dobie to the drill and went to work.....
The Lift Off is in a spray can so I kept spraying while I was buffing with the scrubber......
All said and done I spent about 4 hours to remove one side of it.
But all the paint is still intact.
I will post pics of the trim removed The Targa Band Installed the new Bra Installed and the Rx-8 Shift ****.
