Hey guys, I have some replacement fender flares on order to replace a damaged fender flare on my laramie. It is a stock flare so I am just wondering what the best way to go about removing it is. Obviously remove the screws but what's the best way to soften the 3m tape to get them off? Thanks in advance!

I partially removed mine one day, meaning I just took out the screws and the tape was already releasing. There is not much tape, so it will come off easy and they use the same procedure as debadging to clean up the residue...

The OEM ones come in gloss black, no texture.....but you can get them in a kit for under $400 ;)
