If youre worried about breaking some of the clips when removing the bump strips, just order some spare ones from a Renault dealer. They work out at only 49p each! That way, if you do break the clips when removing your bump strips, it wont cause too much of a problem.

There easy to pull of no problem at all just push them backwards.

Just have someone else help you put them back on doing it on your own . I tried and never manged to get all the catches to go back on my own.

use a big screwdriver or a chisel to wrench them off, the paint is pretty tough on these cars you know.

Errrrr use a chisel to remove the bump strips. I managed to push them of by hand.

Using a chisel is going to break the strip as its designed to be pushed backwards and off not prised away.
