My QX4 body cladding paint started bubbling. I like to paint them myself but don't know how to take them off.
I read factory service manual downloaded from this forum, but still don't know how. Maybe I didn't read it carefully.

Can some experts provide a simplified steps? Thank you.

Page BT-38 of the FSM says they are held on with clips and double-sided adhesive tape. I believe the diagram suggests using a heat gun to aid removal of the double-sided adhesive tape.
