So the previous owner attached this rice ***(he was cuban) door cover to the freakin car

I know there is glue under it, and i hate the fact, it's glued on.

How should i remove this with minimal damage to the door and paint!??

Get a new one huh?

my suggestion would be a heat gun or hair dryer, seeing as how that will melt / make glue soft, unless he used gorilla glue or some sh*t. Good luck though.

oh man, haven't seen that in a while.

Those were SUPER popular in Japan with the D1 cars and street cars around 2002 or 2003.

If that was for a s13, I'd somewhat consider getting it from you.

^ I use the heat gun a couple of times and works pretty good...don't see the connection between the door cover and being cuban....maybe cigar and cuban

The funny thing is that according to the picture and the way the latch "supposedly" opens the guy put it on backwards.... not only was this guy rice, he was stupid too.
