Does anyone know if the bump strip trim or whatever it's called on a chrome bumper car which runs along the wing, door and quarter panel, is it stuck on or is it held on by bolts or clips ?

Mixture of push fit plastic tabs and studs and plastic nuts:

I think the wing is push fit only.

The doors are push/slide fit plus one stud/plastic nut fixing located under the door catch.

And i think the rear quarter panel is also push/slide fit and a stud/plastic fixing in the wheel arch

I may be wrong, check the areas i mentioned and it should become apparent.

Others will be along soon who may know for sure.

just double check before taking my advice. :D

Front wings are push fit!

Doors are a 9mm nut on the bit nearest to the handle, it then pops out all the way to the last bit, then slides away

The rear, again a 9mm nut in the wheel arch area, then it pops off and slides at the end
