Removing OEM Appearance Kit?

I'd like some help and advice with my situation.

Is there someone who can tell me how to remove the OEM appearance kit? If anyone has done this I'd appreciate any advice. As far as I know everything is just taped on.... will I find holes in the bumpers and rocker panels when I remove the kit?

The reason I am asking is because I want to take the Appearance Kit off my car and transfer it to another 8 that I'm trading in for.

Thanks in advance.

there will be holes for the side aero flares, the rear aero flares are taped on and have a bolt in the front part of it...but no holes should show with those off

there is one hole that will show in the rear aero flares, side flares have four holes each and the front dam has 6 holes total.

Thanks for the insight.

Any experience with the front portion of the appearance kit anyone?
