    Hey, So on my 99 2.5RS the previous owner painted the side skirts the same color as the car, but currently, each time I wash the car, massive chunks of it are coming off revealing the original non-painted self.(which imo, looks much much nicer) Anyone know a good way to remove said paint without trashing the part?

    Plastic clading? Blast it with a pressure washer to knock off what you can.

    use shipping tape to pull it off?

    Apply like hot bikini wax and pull of quickly.

    Yeah, it's a pretty flexible plastic cladding, weird, I thought I wrote that in the subject.
