How to remove paint from rear lip
Guys, I need some help with removing paint from the rear lip. I brought the front, side, and rear lip to a paint shop today to get it painted. Turns out they wont do my rear because the paint need to be remove first. It's chipped and coming off so they told me I need to take it all out before they can do it. What's the best way to remove the paint with the no/least damage to the lip?

When sanding, make long, consistent movements. This will help minimize uneven sanding.
