God Bless, rick
My car is a 78 driver but I am getting it painted also. ( it was to go in around March and now May and still not in, The place is to be good dad and son but feel like getting a run around, but don't want a chain auto body shop painting it)...sorry to get off track. Like yo doing some of the prep not body work but removing stuff!
My question is about the metal plates, decals, Flags/25 anniversary plates. I have not researched the posts but how are they attached? or better yet how to remove them. The from emblem I can reach but seems just two pointed leads going through the body with no nuts attached so I assume sealant adhesive some how and these are just guides????
I am concerned on the best way to pry/remove them as I found out with the rear window trim it has so much adhesive on that the clip release tool was useless and I had a ton of sealant to remove completelye clips, and install new clips to re-attach the trim after painting.
Not sure how you would get to the back of the side ones so it must be attached with adhesive?
Any info would be great since you have already been here.
Thanks BB78
