removing side skirts & primer questions

heya-

well basically i've removed all the tupperware off this truck, and amazingly looks better than i thought. but anyways, i'm having a real hard time taking off those side skirts, almost impossible! has anyone done this, and perhaps some tips to lead me to taking it off? it's those dam green/black clips, or should i just unscrew those from under the truck? (i know i was able to do that on the ones in back, not sure on these). if not, i guess i'll be stuck leaving my truck at my friends house while we do it.

i got my body paint and clear coat (for flexible parts, some formula in them). now, i picked up a few cans of dupli-color sandable primer and some wetsand sandpaper to do this. is this primer safe and will do the job for this? btw, i ordered my body paint and clear coat from paintscratch.com, and matches perfectly. so should the dupli-color work?

thanks a ton :)
 






thanks a ton to jamest for his help in irc- everything is clarified and done.

for the record, removing the side skirts: just rip it all off.

for the primer: it should be fine.
