I spoke with the body shop at the Honda Dealer where I got my 2000 ex civic coupe. They said that it would cost about $50 per side molding if I brought them in unmounted and cleaned. $100 aint bad.... I bought a tar remover/degreaser to clean it off. Then I'm gonna spray a couple coats of Bulldog Adhesion Promoter to help the auto paint stick to the plastic....the body shop told me that the paint will probably chip off easily otherwise.
