yeap you can just pull it off, get a new one from the dealer, around 40ish i think. or you can do what i and a few members did and just go to autozone and just buy like a 3/8 inch chrome strip and put it in there. cut to fit. i can't even tell the difference. i don't know if 1/2 inch would work. total cost was 10 bucks!

1/2" is too wide for the OEM bumper. 3/8" is your best bet. The only difference is that the OEM stuff sits more flush because the adhesive section is thicker. Those who dont know wont be able to tell, unless that person is a CL'er and he/she is standing really close to it.

I just bought a new front one for the dealer, ran about $60 or $70, probably close to the same for the rear.

so it is indeed just double sided tape holding it on?

so it is just a matter of yanking it off and putting a new one on from the dealer which would come with double sided tape on it ready to stick on i guess?

i reckon these will cost me like $150 each from my Aussie dealer..

Lol, yea I just put that up there a couple weeks ago, lol. Did the same thing to me the first time I saw it.

Why don't you just order from Carson and have them shipped. They hardly weigh anything.
To answer the question before about it just pulling off, yes, just get it started at one end and it will peel off pretty easily.
