Hi All,

Does anyone know how the bumper trim on 1986 and newer bumpers is assembled? I'm referring to the thin chrome/stainless and black rubber trim that goes around the top of the front and rear bumpers, sometimes referred to as hockey sticks.

I'd like to disassemble mine to clean up the rubber and maybe polish or powdercoat the metal. If I try to gently take it apart it doesn't seem to want to come apart, and I have no desire to break it by being ham-fisted.

Has anyone ever taken these apart and then successfully put them back together? They seem to be glued or bonded somehow.

Thanks as always for the info!
