Default Side Skirt install question

If you use the tape that comes preinstalled on some skirts how hard is it to remove the skirts at a later date? Thanks.

Not hard. Fishing line and cleanup of the tape residue.

Plus there is no evidence they were ever there, so if you sell or trade in your car in a few years you won't have any extra holes in the rockers, and you can re-sell your skirts to someone else or re-install them on your next vette. I have mine attached at the front and back with factory bolts, and taped in the middle with no issues.
