    How do I remove the wheel flares? Basically the ones that are painted on the sport, but bare plastic on the off road.

    I scratched mine and want to get it fixed.

    I heard they're actually bolted on on the 16's unlike the 2nd gens, so maybe hold off on that. Can Anyone chime in? I'd be surprised if they actually aren't just clipped on though
