Minator, they come off easy. I used an old library card (softer than a credit card) to get them off.

Doc, haven't done the interior yet. Just now getting to it. Scuffed them with 600 grit, adhesion promoter, paint, wetsand with 1000 clear, wet sand again if necesary.

Man. It ain't fair. My stock truck looks like a bimbo now. I should just hire you and fly you out to Hawaii to use some of you imagination on my truck. Not that the stuff you're doing is completely original cause I know it's been done before. Sure does look sweet though. Definitely looking forward to seeing all the interior finished.

Thanks BIGGSOOO. Spent 7 months in Pearl on deployment. That was enough for me. You learn quickly not to venture too far down Waikiki (the women disappear). Nice place to visit, but I got Island fever.
