Belt line molding? The little plastic strip thats halfway down the door where the 'break' is? Easy. Tale a putty knife and wrap the edge of the blade with a layer of duct/electrical tape. Use a hairdryer to heat up the rubber plastic piece and get it warm, the puttyknife will peel it right off the side of the door

Metal brackets? try Thirdgen Ranch or Hawks
