The factory stripes are automotive paint/clear coat on a vinyl substrate. There is nothing applied to them after they are installed. Yes, they can be removed without damage to the underlying paint.

This is correct, they are put on at the factory after the cur is build but before it ships. easily removed if needed...

The full length stripes and stinger stripes are applied by a third party after the car is built and before it ships. Fender hash stripes and Jake hood graphic and some other graphic packages are LPO options - they are dealer installed. Online Order Guide clearly indicates which are LPO options and which are not.
