im trying to picture it in my head. I have them on my car but just cant remember what they look like under the arches... only thing i can suggest is to unscrew them and if its f****d up the paint or anything just screw em back on. Why do you want to take them off anyway?

if its naff have to put them back on.

If it turns out that you have screwed it into the bodywork, put some dinitrol or waxoyl in the holes so they don't start to rot

Its possible it might be, it will most likely require machine polishing to remove them if it is damaged.
