    I want to remove the chrome fender lips on a '93 XCab 2wd...

    ... how are they attached? Just adhesive?

    Can I warm them up with a heat gun to get them to let go, or is there a better method?

    Any damage left when removed? Or holes, etc?

    Yeah the strip of chrome trim that goes around each wheel well. Any idea how to remove it? I can just start pulling but I would like to be a little more careful than.that.

    My 4runner trims screwed on with the inner liner. If they are stuck on with adhesive, use a hair drier or heat gun on low to soften the adhesive.
