Removing gutter trim

[greg124]

Does anyone know of a good technique for removing chrome gutter trim without damaging it?
I've managed to remove the short rear section, but I'd like some advice on the main long section. Or point me to a wiki if one already exists,

thanks

From the front section, pop it off the car upto where it straightens out, the curl the whole thing backwards, it will then slide away...

Although its not as easy as typing as they love to just not curl backwards and then bend as your pulling it away, if you manage to get that far, then soon as you get it off you bend it by accident...

If they dont come off in one attempt for me I just leave them

Type "trim" into the Wiki and you get...
