Default Removing the side molding

I have been seeing a lot of C5’s with the side moldings (down the front fender & doors) removed. I think it looks pretty sharp with the line not on the body. Is it easy to remove? Is it just double sided stick tape & no holes? Another obvious question is if I were to remove it would the paint be a slightly richer color where it was?
