Has anybody replaced the trim piece/tail gate molding (number 6 in the attached diagram) on the bottom of their lift gate?

I am looking to replace mine, or possibly remove it altogether, and am wondering if this is simply adhered with double sided tape. I am also curious if there will be holes underneath the trim or if the surface is painted and smooth. Has anyone replaced theirs?

Double stick, no holes.

Thank you, RAudi…a wealth of information as always!

This man must take apart and reassemble his 958 like it’s a LEGO.

Folks- looking to replace mine (silver molding on Carmine Red body) as well.
Do they come in other colors? Can't seem to find any results.Thx!

Just silver and black as far as I know.

It is just double sided tape but there is a hole to center the thing when you install it.

There are black, chrome and platinum silver metallic (I think it is shade of chrome on 2014 cars). I believe the color supposed to match the windows trim.

I need to order a black one soon as mine has started to bubble. Does anynow the cheapest place to order from?

I just bought this exact piece maybe a month ago. Mine was also bubbling.

I bought it from Porsche for like $88 or something.

For those of you do this. I used one of these,

when I did mine. There was a lot of adhesive that did not come off with the old one. The eraser really saved a lot of elbow grease and did no damage to the paint, even though the new trim piece would cover it anyway.

+1 on the the rubber eraser Boomer80 linked to. Seriously, if you're going to do this job, do yourself a favor and spend the 10 bucks on this tool, you will not regret it. Works great on the PORSCHE, etc. lettering as well.
