by shadowline trim do you mean the chrome/black strip running below your window?

There's a very good article on R3V that Jordan did.

Use some duct tape to protect the paint along the top edge of the 1/4 panel below the trim then with a thin isopon spreader to gently lever up the trim..
If the trim is very stiff use a piece of number plate as a wedge and tap it up with a mallet.. :thumb:
