I don't have a pic right now, but I removed mine right around delivery time. Looks much better. Then I cut out some vinyl and installed it within the indentation. The trick here is the spears cannot be used as a template. All done freehand [?]

The only kind of "safety" you need be concerned about is the %@##!(^^%^% you'll be doing during the spear removal process. Children: Stay Back 500 Feet!

Here is a picture I took at the recent Northwest PT Event, Mossyrock, WA, of a PT Cruiser with the side spears removed and replaced with flat sealed wood pieces. [8]

I don't know. [:I] It believe it was done by a painter down in Oregon, possibly in the Eugene area.
