    the chrome boot strip is easy enough to remove,,the chrome bits in the lights do come off,but don't know how. I recently had my rear chrome wrapped in gloss black,we removed the chrome bar,but decided to wrap the light chrome still attached to car,made an arse of first attempt ,but got it bang on after that.....are you wanting to remove for paint,or wrap ?

      Trying to wrap the same bits you have done. Have the window trim and fog light surrounds wrapped already.

      Finding it difficult to get the wrap pushed into the light area.

      Might just do the boot strip and leave the two bits to a professional thead

          On a similar theme, any idea whether the chrome 'wings' on the GS radiator grille are easily removable (and the foglight chrome trims)? I want to wrap them black, and figured it may be easier to do it off-car if possible.
