Default Nismo wheel lip molding removal - Done

I got it done. The larger pieces come off easily and the adhesive tape left will come off pretty easily with a heat gun and microfiber towel. The bumper pieces are held on by 2 rivets and the easy thing to do would be to drill them out. I chose to use a pick tool and pliers to get them out since I did not want to make the hole larger. The adhesive tape is much harder to remove as it really sticks to the plastic. Goo gone, microfiber towel, and lots of persistence...and a few choice words. I think it was well worth it 😊
