    I plan to remove the glue, clips, and replace the molding and clips this weekend. Has anyone seen this before?

    Also, I bought some Goo-Gone since I read it is safe on paint. Maybe soak the glue in goo gone for awhile and nudge at it with a butter knife from below. I heard about some using acetone, but that will eat away the clear coat.
