Default Side Scoop Removal...

Has anyone removed the false side scoops on the Mustangs? I haven’t really been a fan of them since I got the car however I just haven’t gotten around to removing them. If it’s not too much of an undertaking, I’m probably going to remove them this weekend.

They are just stuck on with two sided tape right?

I know you said you r not a fan, but I dont think it takes away from the car either. I would leave them on for the clean O.G. look you have going on. JMO.

I've only done it on a glass mounted plate but I used heavy fising line to saw thru the tape, then a solvent to remove the glue and tape left on the glass. Someone previously mentioned "goop-off" or something like that...

But I think you're a little nutz to want to take them off. They add to the look.
