Hey guys

Picked today MK1 Octavia Elegance 1.9 tdi. Car overall in good nick, few niggles such as window regulator and micro switches on locks. Body wise it's pretty clean for age and mileage, just black bumper strips gone faded. I would like to remove them and spray in matt black but don't want to pull them in case clips will snap. Anyone knows how to safely remove them (front and rear)?

Thanks

Bump strips came off easily when I colour coded mine.

Did you just pull it? Is there any clips which I need to watch out?

They just pull off very easily.

You need a cloth and a flat blade screw driver and pop away

If u remove the ones on the doors u will need new ones. I removed mine for a cleaner look.

Think you have to take front number plate off as holds the strip in the middle.

Thanks guys

Will try to do it when weather will improve
