There are no screws and the stainless stims clip onto the door frame. They should unclip if they are prised off carefully but if you bend them or dent them they'll never look right. Why do you want to take them off?

when the car was painted it looks like they have sanded  by accident a 2 inch area of the trim on the top of the door was not there when sent for painting.

Ah!  :o That's not good  ::) Do you have replacements or you want to remove them to repair it? These are not chromed parts but they are polished stainless steel. Maybe the bodyshop can polish the sanded section without taking it off the door frame?
