does any one know how to remove side molding with out hurting the paint?

Well since the left rear piece seems to fall off on its own, I'd guess a little gasoline along the top and some time for it to soak would soften the glue. I carefully peeled mine off on a hot summer day. Left alot of residue though. Real pain and alot of paint thinner and a rag needed to remove it.

Goo Gone works well - run it along the top edge and let it soak. It will also do a good job of removing the remaining adhesive without damaging the paint...

... gas won't hurt either, as long as you clean the paint with soap and water, shortly thereafter - and re-wax. It removes that also...

I've used gas to clean tar off the rockers...

I used product for removing pin stripes/stickers, holy **** that stuff was toxic! By the time I realized (fumes were cool) how fast it worked, it had ate some of the paint. Use the goo gone or gas, just let it soak.

You can get Bug and Tarr Remover. I don't know about adhesive, but it tool 3 large black marks from the side of my Grand AM (winter car) after some A-hole did a lane change into me.

It will probably work on the adhesive too.

What ever you use you should probably wash your car real well after tho
