Yeah I know it'd be easy. I would never buy ANY car with plans to
deface it like that. It's just not me. If I did have an 87-93 asc
or GT, I'd grin and bear it :-)
BTW, adhesive remover is wonderful stuff. I don't think you would
have to do a repaint under the fender trim if you used adhesive
remover on the old mouldings.
Side note, my Mom just called and got a 1977 MGB...I wonder what
she's got herself into now.
