Some replies i found after search for you:

If it does come off, you can go to a auto supply store and get some rubbing compound that is clear coat safe and that will bring the gloss back to the aera.

You can get a liquid that will soften and remove superglue m8.

Be abit of a pain if one of the bulbs goes, you'd either have to rip it off or try to get to it via the inside

Thanks for the comments guys, i am yet to try super glue remover, i am always worried about what effects it will have on the paint, but i guess its worth a go!
Really dont want to pull paint off her though!
