    Default Roof Rails

    Hey guys. I was gonna do some paint work to the GTP and was wondering what the proper way is to remove the roof rails without braking them. Kinda don't wanna experiment so i figured I would ask if anyone has done it and how they go on and come off. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!

    i used a plastic epoxy. they were a lot tighter than the double sided tape i was trying.

    they were still fairly easy to take off though.

    I wasn't aware there was a difference between Anniversary rails and any other rails.
