Quoted from branlon8:

Any tips for removing the rest of the siderails and in particular the double sided tape?
I recently took the side rails off my Fish Tales and with the rails came a lot of cabinet wood. I also bent the rails in the process. Admittedly I wasn’t very careful because I was replacing the decals and the siderails anyway (and I had a new tube of wood filler), but I was thinking there’s got to be a better way. I used a hammer to hit the scraper up under the siderails and did a bit of pulling.

Apply heat to soften up the tape... and make sure you aren't digging into the cabinet when scraping. Use less force.
