You mean a P2 car, (no such thing as a mk2)?
I'm also assuming this is an 01. ALL 01 roof strips were bad and the color faded out.
They can be removed for paint or mask them and paint them on the car.

The only other thing you can do is order new ones (which are now good and don't fade)

Usually when you remove the molding the clips break. So you might want to get new clips. They pop off pretty easy. Usually if you pull them towardsyou when standing looking at thecar they will come off pretty easy.
