I am going to be painting all my plastic on my car. It is a '02 model year. I want to remove it all and carry it to the shop so my car does not leave my garage. I know Marcus and several others are knowledgeable about this. Thanks for the help on the following removal of parts.
Please let me know if I should watch for anything or be really careful when removing a part and how many screws, 2 sided tape, etc....... Also, what do you guys think about the clear bra?


1) Nose

2) Wing

3) Rear

4) Sideskirts (I see from another post thanks)

5) Sidevents

...what model Saleen do you have that has two wings (#2 and #5)?? I'm confused LOL

Anyways, from what I've heard, the sidevents are a nightmare! The wing is simple, removing a few bolts from the underside of the deck lid. The front and rear valence consist of screws in the fender well, double sided tape along the top and a few straps (huh, zipties) underneth attached to the chasis... The real trick will be getting them back on the car straight, without screwing up the paint job.

Personally, if the paint shop is a reliable business and you've done your homework on the company, I would let them handle the removal and re-mounting process. It might be worth the extra money they would charge not to mention the hassle and if they mess up the paint while putting it back on, they'll be responsible to fix it. Just write down the mileage and make sure they know you wrote it down to avoid any "joy riding" body kit-less
