I'm sure there is a correct way to pop them off, i.e. from the leading edge of the surround, but I'm not sure of this. There was a thread where someone did it themselves.
Yes they are 3 individual pieces.
Are there any clips that could be damaged for either the windshield trim or the fender grilles that I should order in advance if I decide to have this done? If so, does anyone have part numbers?
I'm sure the clips could be damaged so being cautious when prying them off is key. As for the side strakes the clips are built into the strakes themselves so being careful here is advised too. I broke one of the clips (there are 3, 1 per strake) but they still go on and don't move once you put the good double stick tape back on them.
