You might try some monofilament fishing line. Work the line under one end of the trim and gently use it to "saw" through the adhesive. 3M makes a trim adhesive remover which will soften the adhesive while not damaging the paint, so soaking the trim first might help (along with some gentle heat). If it's a second layer of paint over the original, it's almost a sure thing the paint will be damaged.

The pedal doesn’t hit the floor. At normal street speed, she stops ok....but I could never come to a skidding stop. Is this normal for a...- 56
