The side trim is still on now, I thought I'd use a razor scraper to take that off, but what about the adhesive tape?

DO NOT use a razor knife or scraper , you'll damage the paint
Heat gun and some fishing line see sawed underneath it will remove it far more effectively ...
95/96 no holes .... 97+ holes that will need filled and repainted ...
Also due to age you may be left with ghost lines since the paint underneath has not been exposed to sun ...
Residue removal spring for an eraser wheel at the body supply shop ... or 3M adhesive remover and tons of elbow grease

Goo-gone also works if you've heard of it.

Brings have side cladding not side MOLDING

I personally think the Brings look better with it on. Do you need to remove them when you put on side skirts?

TC2 sides were designed to keep the cladding on the sebring

Nykon you're right, I DO have an Avenger, ...but if JBI has a 'Bring, why does his sig have an Avenger pic?
Nykon
