I've heard of taking fishing line between both hands and pulling it between the trim and body....sorta like flossing.

Heat gun/hair dryer and good monofilament

Would this work for giving my neon the ACR look? But just on the back doors so the GRM number plate looks better

I've been using a combination of cold-chisel, blowtorch and reciprocating saw on the E30.

Wait another 2 years, by that time the truck should magically rust into nothing...... No truck, no trim :)
