Replace it. Or remove, rub it back with sandpaper and respray it.

Sand paper doesn't work.. You need to get a stanley knife and slice the peeling away ! Best off removing this to not damage your car however removing this item will be hard. Replacing it is even harder lol

Haha never done them on a honda. On the rx7's they are easy as to pull off, but 95% of the time may as well just replace it. The rubber seal that runs on the window gets dry and ineffective so kills the whole idea, no point having a nice new looking window seal if it doesn't seal...

Very do able man! As I said you need a Stanley knife and place a rubber buffer on the body so you don't scratch your paintwork with the blade like I did :)
