If the black stuff you're referring to is the foam-like adhesive tape they used to adhere the trim to the truck you need to get a 3M eraser wheel that mounts into a hand drill and use it to power the stuff off. You can buy the wheels at auto paint and some part stores.

Yeah that wheel gets it off quick with no scratches or burn marks.
RUN WAT U BRUNG!!!!
it isnt the tape the tape was no problem, just some hot water and fingure nail. its like some dirt or hardened wax.
I like to take a somewhat scientific approach. Get some cotton balls and every sort of cleaner or chemical you have in the house and dab a little of 1 chemical on a cotton ball and try to rub the stuff off. I you find a chemical that happens to break the bonds of the black stuff, you can just get a rag and clean that stuff up. Its amazing what stuff will clean automotive chemicals up.
I even found out that morning burst facial cleanser is the only thing that will cut the resin binder in thermal grease used on electronic device heat sinks.
